This is the one tag and challenge that I always make a point of joining, and also look through the posts of others that join the challenge and seeing markets from all around the world.

For this weeks post, I am sharing some photos of shops and buildings in the Historic District downtown here in New Bedford, Starting with the New Bedford Ship Supply Company.
Commercial fishing is a big industry here in New Bedford, its one of the busiest ports in the country in that regard, so there are plenty of fishing and boat supply stores around

You may notice that I haven't given the Aperture setting for this and all the photos in this post, that's because i used my TT Artisans 11 Mm Ultra wide lens for all these shots, where it is manual Aperture and the camera does not capture the information on the apertures, but I am thinking most of them are somewhere in the range of F8 to F11.
Its not a lens I use all the time, but I do think its a fun lens and take it out now and again, at around $235 its a relative cheap lens, compared to some of the other lenses I have, but handy when its only possible to get shots of buildings like these from fairly close up.

Next up is the Drive through for the Bristol County Savings bank, I had driven by this many times and never thought of taking a photo of it, but seeing in in the early morning light I thought it was worth a shot

Now the morning i took these I had not initially bene planning to go for a walk downtown, I had headed to the port, but got there quite a bit earlier than I needed to and it was still pretty dark so I took a stroll up to this area.

I don't remember what this building is used as now but from the signage it could be or was at some time a bank
