Diamond earrings anyone?


Diamonds may be a girl's best friend, but maybe not flea market "diamonds." Yup, another rare find at the flea market where, given enough sun, anything that glitters has got to be "real." Brushed aluminum looks like platinum, copper like gold, polyester like silk and when you buy that Gucci handbag, they all say, "Gotcha'."

As for us, we just keep shooting, unless of course someone threatens to shoot us. Then it's, "never mind," and off we go to the another table to find the next priceless gem of antiquity.

It seems whenever we show up at a flea market with a camera, we become the focus their attention in case they become the focus of our attention. Try it sometime.
