Answer 1

Love this photo!  It really tells a story about his life - his occupation, that he owns his shop, and some of the products he sells.  Thanks for sharing.

Answer 2

Very cool! Thank you for sharing this, Malcolm. I love seeing "slice of life" photos like this. To me they're so much more compelling and interesting that studio pictures.
