Wonderful photo of this smiling man. One only wishes that everyone could have such joy in their occupation. What a talent he has with his knitting.

The background is absolutely beautiful, just like the expression on his face... just glowing.

Terrific shot of daily life. He looks like someone who could tell terrific stories filled with laughter... thanks for sharing, Lisa
