Whilst walking through what we call the "Quartieri Spagnoli", the area where the troops used to live during the Spanish domination, in Napoli I walked into a shoemaker workshop to repair my friend heel which broke in front of his door (...), the gentleman welcomed us with a smile and fixed the shoe in two minutes (too short to take a good shot of him) and always with a smile on his face, he does the same job since he was 14 and moved from a neighbour city to Napoli, I wonder if the secret of a happy life is into getting a job who makes one rich in goods or in the soul...

Agree good documentary story. It is great that he agreed to let you take his picture (of course he was getting paid). I don't care for black and white but this works well in that format and is is a very nice photo.
