 The shop of this shoemaker is quite close to my working place so whenever I have shoes or boots that need mending I'm taking it to him.
He's a very sweet person and enjoyed that I was taking pictures in his shop - he was happy to have somebody to chat with... and I swear that I didn't alter anything for the sake of the picture - this is the original condition of his shop, even the hiking boot in the foreground was lying there as it is on this shot!

A dying trade preserved: the leading line of the bench, cluttered with tools of the trade and boots, encourages the eyes to circle round to the jolly craftsman himself. The sharpness of the image facilitated the opportunity to look at all the details of his shop - really quite fascinating. Two-digit score from me.
