So I went looking through my photos for other images of work that I’ve caught on my travels. Here is laundry day on the shores of Lake Atitlan.

Still in Guatemala, this chap made log-carrying look easy. I was in awe of the speed at which he was walking with such a heavy burden.

This guard had the difficult task of stopping people from running headlong through the tulip fields at the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival.

Behind the scenes, in fields not open to the public, tulilp pickers spread across fields of unopened tulips gathering armloads of plants for future sale.
