During my recent photowalk at San Miguelito, I was looking for textures, patterns, shapes, faces and of course, color. I found them all. The following photographs depict the rich colors of Panama fruits deposited inside large glass containers.
It was just what I was looking for. Take a look and enjoy a scene from a farmers’ market at San Miguelito in Panama City, Panama. The colors are great.

When the weather is steamy hot and your face is red and moist with sweat, nothing beats a natural tropical fruit shake. You can take my word for it. Good Day.
Morning Omar,
Make mine chicha naranjilla, please! I LOVE this taste, even more so because I can’t get it here. Boquete has just the right climate for the fruit but even there it is difficult to grow enough to make money at it.
That’s the only problem with fruit drinks in Panama, after you have sampled the real thing, nothing from a container every comes close to satisfying.

Hi Jim and Nena:
Next time you come down to Boquete, have a ball with naranjilla chicha. I like that drink as well. Papaya is also, one of my favorites.
Take Care,
Omar.-
I suspect what Jim and Nena said is my comment also. Nothing like the real thing in anything.
