I was a bit lost for this one, and then I recalled these two images I took in Fethiye a few years ago. Two people who seemed happy and engrossed in their labours.
First we have a glass blower:

And now a chef who I saw proudly assembling his fish, first boning, then adding veg and garnish:

Excellent photo selections for labor of love. Take special skills and patience.
Thanks, Amy!
Yep! Two good ones, Sue 🙂 🙂
Thanks, Jo!
Oh, I loathe boning fish which is why I always buy deboned fillets and never order turbot in a restaurant!!
Teehee!
Excellent portraits of each man doing what he loves best. It shows in their concentration which you have captured very well.
Thanks, Elizabeth!
Oh, I’m glad you found these – lovely.
Thanks, Margaret!
Two fine choices Sue! Love the chef especially as he seems so focused on his work. I agree, deboning fish requires total concentration too. Not my favorite thing 😀 (the work, not the eating LOL)
Thanks, Tina! That Chef was super-focussed, and a very personable fellow!
Excellent choices. Several years ago I visited a Rojo’s Cafe in Lambertville, New Jersey. I ordered a cappuccino which the barista skilfully prepared. But when he had completed his milk art, he didn’t like the result. I was amazed that he dumped the whole cup into the sink and started over.
Thanks, Khurt!
