Oh my goodness what a job! I hope he doesnt have to change them into the small stones by his side. He looks as though he takes great care which stones he chooses, almost dainty. I wonder if they draw straws for this job, although I suspect it could be a great job for someone angry :) Wonderful capture and insight as usual my friend.
Oh, my. That seems an interesting job. I never even considered that someone might do such a thing by hand. Truly amazing. His right arm does look very muscular like he's been doing this for quite some time. Wonderful image, Sayed. I love seeing things through your eyes. Things I may never see through my own unless I go there, which might happen someday. lol
You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

I've done some boring jobs in my time Sayed
But this one must win the prize !! why this work can't be done at the quarry by machinery amazes me. I imagine he'll get paid very little too what a life hey !!
Life's around said Phil the 35 millimetre cameraman. I recently went to the doctors, and said I've got icon fever, but he told me there was no cure for the disease.
But I want to know what the little pieces are used for and why is he being so picky about what he's doing? He must be very good at his job, because I see that he still has all his fingers and toes....well, on his right foot anyway!!!

oh my goodness, what a job, life is soooo different there, and i can see it time and time again in your shots. I cannot imagine anyone here doing that job, they would refuse i am sure, and if they did they would have to wear saftey boots, saftey glasses, a helmet and probably protective clothing also (just incase the employer got sued for an injury caused by a flying piece of rock)! lol.
