06 AUGUST 2017 - MENGWI, BALI, INDONESIA: Men eat their breakfast in a small "warung" (family owned restaurant or snack shop) in the livestock section of the Bringkit Market in Mengwi, about 30 minutes from Denpasar. Bringkit Market is famous on Bali for its Sunday livestock and poultry market. Hundreds of the small Bali cows are bought and sold there every week. Bali's local markets are open on an every three day rotating schedule because venders travel from town to town. Before modern refrigeration and convenience stores became common place on Bali, markets were thriving community gatherings. Fewer people shop at markets now as more and more consumers go to convenience stores and more families have refrigerators. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
