shop windows can tell a lot about the owner. in the case of this jeweller, i often saw pieces a bit off the mainstream of a sanitarium’s offerings. it turned out the owner still works as a goldsmith, immediately behind the shop windows. my question to come and take some pictures was answered positively.

when i arrived, he was just finishing a small golden pendant and setting the stone, so i had enough food for my lens. trying to avoid flashlight ‚cause i never get that really right, i was glad to have iso 2000 available. together with in-camera-stabilisation and an old f2.8 lens it was more than sufficient.
