Minigone Market, Rangoon

Minigone Market (actually correctly Romanized and pronounced 'myay ni gon', meaning 'red dirt hill') in Rangoon, on Inya Road just south of the Sakura Residence Hotel on the west side of the street, at about 6:45am as some of the vendors are still laying out items and blessing their stalls for a day of good sales, killing and plucking chickens (I'd never heard a chicken scream before), scraping fish flesh from the skin to make fish cake, etc.

Thanks for making the effort so early in the morning. Really enjoyed it. Shame some animals were harmed in making the film.
