Today, I went to the garage where we have our car in repair normally. I shot enough good photos for two week Men at Work, but I will not post them all - at least not now. Probably I will save them for worse times.... But this week, I will present all workers in this garage "De Beijer" in Randwijk in a small series. Today, the young lady I met who worked on one of the vans of the garage itself.

The second one from this series I made yesterday. Made with the SMC-Takumar 55/1.8. I like this lens!

I really dig both of these shots - these people look serious; I'd have no qualms about allowing them to work on my cars.

Thanks Jer. Tomorrow, and the day after I will have some more from this garage...

Off topic: I am not very happy with the place of this thread in Mini Challenges and Games, and I've contacted Adam on this. There is allready some discussion on it by others too, but I understand it is done for technical reasons.

This is the man who owns the garage, one of the brothers De Beijer. His task - at least when I visited the place

- was sewing the fabrics of some car chairs. I would say it's a humble job for a boss....

It's getting harder to find new subjects for this project, and as my work is getting busier, the opportunities to make photos for Men at Work are scarce. I still have some oldies which I can add to the collection, but even those are getten less and less. So, probably I have to find another strategy. For now, two not so new photos from the cycle repair shop.

During my (extended) lunchbreak, I made some photos for my project. This one is from the Biological Farm "De Stroom" in Hemmen, where I made photos before. They were busy planting pumpkins, giving me the oportunity to try something different with people on tractors. Made some more, which I will post in the PYP section. For now, I decided to add this one to my MaW collection, although there were several other candidates, amongst which some more close ups.... Hard to decide...
