He repairs shoes and sandals - and handbags, and even the zip in your trousers. He's a real expert. He doesn't ask any more from foreign tourists than he does from locals, but he's very grateful if you give him too much and tell him to keep the change.

This is such a great picture! Its got such a raw, gritty feel to it, especially the background and the piles of leather, rubber strewn around him and yet he looks so..content. The human element has been captured so well....well done Coshipi!
The man could be in a cigarette ad (if they still allowed it)! Such enjoyment.....
I love how real this image is...it makes me appreciate what I have. I am a big fan of gritty, rustic imagry...along with people....this image really captures all of that and tells a story. It's a really nice piece of photojournalism...but it can also be concocted into many other tales. Nice work!

DeviantART is counting down to its 100 millionth deviation! Join in on the fun and take a look back at some of the most noteworthy deviations we've seen along the way. The deviant who uploads the 100 millionth deviation could win a special prize, too. Hurry, we're going to hit the 100 million mark soon!
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.

We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
