One of the best things you can do for your child is to get them involved in business. You can teach them the ins and outs of being a business owner and having a entrepreneurial mindset.

This would help them develop a healthy, lifelong financial habits of spending, investing, protecting, saving, earning and borrowing.
Young boy, you have your whole life ahead of you! At any age, you can turn your life in a complete different direction and sail to bliss. Well done, you!
A hike through the salt pan terraces in the Sacred Valley above the Urubamba River near Maras, Peru, is a step back in Inca history. Families extract the salt from each terrace area sifting the salt with their feet then bag and transport the salt to the valley below where it is sold by the community and the profits returned to the workers and family owners. Opportunities for incredible views, photographs, plus learning about Inca culture and history make the salt mines of Maras unique. The salt mines of Maras are recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.
This is a crazy-good neighbor ice cream shop that has been around for a couple of generations. Their lines are long and the customers’ cars disrupt traffic regularly. No one seems to mind, though
A young man tends to his family's store while reading a comic book on a very tiny chair. Binondo District, Chinatown, Manila, Philippines.
These are my grandfather, my grandmother and my great-grandfather - all photographed by my grandparents themselves. They ran a photographer's studio in the roaring twenties of the 20th century at Lake Constance.
My grandmother was an educated photographer, albeit her career as such ended when she left her husband to return to her hometown, being a single mom, who had to work as a saleslady in the photographic department of a big warehouse.
She passed away when I was a very young child, so I didn't get to know her well. I have only a few stories told by my father and these photographs I found after I cleared out my fathers flat three years ago. A part of my family history and maybe the part of my genes that planted the seed for being an amateur photographer into my own soul - a photographic treasure for me anyway.
Nestled next to a busy street is a family owned sari sari, grocery store, where neighbors and find cheaper produce and condiments than shopping at the big supermarkets in Malate, Manila, Philippines.
Doud's Market proclaims itself to be the "Oldest Family-Operated Grocery Store in America", being in business continuously since 1884. It sits prominently on the first (or last, depending on how you look at it) street corner on the East side of downtown Mackinac Island.
Another former workshop of L.Gandolfi & Sons, (Established 1880) Master Camera Maker's.

A filipino boy flashes his joyous, welcoming smile inviting me to come try out the food while his mother cooks in the family's restaurant kitchen in the background. Laoag, Ilocos, Philippines.
"Don't touch the thing's, this is a local shop for local people, there's nothing for you here".
Just an old quote from, The League of Gentlemen.
A shop that looks like a shop should look like !.

This old Chevy is at Manning's Used Tires, Auto Sales, and Sheds. I've done business with them for about 10 years and have always found them to be fair, honest, and friendly. They love old Chevys and joke about Ford. They're on Gillespie Street, U.S. 301, Interstate Business 95 in Fayetteville, North Carolina in Cumberland County.
Opened in 1939 as a Catholic convent and school, the brick building still stands... but it has a convoluted history. Abandoned for years, with extensive water damage and a caved-in roof, it was about to be sold for scrap in 1996 when Robert Ducan, from BC, travelling across Canada with his son Adam, found himself in a campground just across the street, waiting for repairs to his VW van. He later said that he just couldn't allow such a beautiful old building to disappear. Instead, he went down to the village office to inquire, and within a few hours his offer of $1,000 had been accepted and he was the new owner.
Handy, energetic, and undoubtedly with a vision, he began renovating immediately, and eight months later The Convent Inn opened for business and housed its first guests. Much of the original woodwork and other features remain intact, including the original blackboards in what was a classroom. Chalk is supplied and guests are welcome to leave words of wisdom for others. I stayed there many times prior to buying my own house in Val Marie; it's a great place to host photography workshops and seminars, which I did for many years. Robert - who had been elected Mayor of Val Marie when I met him in 1999 - always supported the arts, and I became the beneficiary of this as Artist in Residence during the winter of 2000-01, which gave me a unique opportunity to do my first winter prairie photography. This led to my participation in a group gallery exhibition, and subsequently shooting a book for the writer Candace Savage, which directly led to my own book, Wild Prairie. That is only part of the chain of events in my life 20 years ago.
Robert died of liver cancer in January 2019, but his legacy continues. His son, Adam, and widow, Mette, now run The Convent Inn in the same spirit; countless guests have fallen in love with the old building and return again and again. With incredible birding and a national park figuratively a stone's throw away, The Convent is a landmark and a key cog in the local tourism infrastructure. And everyone sleeps really, really well there.
As for this photo, it was a dark and stormy night when I parked my car outside the property, hoping for a lightning flash directly above the building. That didn't happen, but I did catch an eerie purple glow in the sky. This was used as the lead photo in Judith Wright's story about The Convent in the current issue of Prairies North magazine (Summer 2021). Ten other shots round out the coverage. Truth is, I'd rather be photographing wildlife, but I do love the old building, and many of the images pulled from my personal photo files are the result of my incomprehensible compulsion to document everything of significance in my life. A job that feels more like play than work is the best kind of job.
The lack of EXIF data is because I used my ancient manual focus Nikon 24mm lens for this 88 second exposure at ISO 100, shooting from the imagined safety of my car. The storm wasn't all that close. And obviously I didn't get zapped.

Joe Patane and his wife immigrated to the U.S. and Omaha as young adults from Sicily. Joe made a living as a carpenter and eventually opened a fixture business in the basement of a building on Leavenworth St. However, in June of 1953 he opened the building to the public as La Casa Pizzaria. Customers flocked to the new restaurant and they ran out of food halfway through their opening night. The third and fourth generations of the family continue to operate the pizzaria in the same building. They've expanded their space but you can still see the original chimney. La Casa Pizzaria is in PMQ Magazine's Pizza Hall of Fame. Yes, I had a slice or two...delicious.

We celebrate light in our pictures. Understanding how light interacts with the camera is paramount to the work we do. The temperature, intensity and source of light can wield different photography effect on the same subject or scene; add ISO, aperture and speed, the camera, the lens type, focal length and filters…the combination is varied and multi-layered and if you know how to use them all, you will come to appreciate that all lights are useful, even those surrounded by a lot of darkness.
We are guided by three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, our longing to capture in print, that which is beautiful, the constant search for the one picture, and constant barrage of new equipment and style of photography. These passions, like great winds, have blown us across the globe in search of the one and we do understand the one we do look for might be this picture right here for someone else out there.

'Hog House' - pet & animal supplies.
A family owned business in Helston.
I don't trust the big 'chain-stores'.
A vintage 1944 AEC Matador 68.9-CWT conversion timber hauler tractor sits on the property of a family-owned timber company - M.J. Wall & Sons near Ampleforth, North Yorkshire, U.K. The vehicle is fitted with an age-related six-character black plate - “MVS 888”. According to the DVLA this is a 1970 registration which identifies 1970 as the year this vehicle was manufactured. This is likely because the vehicle had been restored, repurposed and re-registered that year. Not sure if the chassis and cab are both original, or this could be a frame-off conversion of fitting the original 1944 cab onto a different chassis. Many of these vehicles built during WWII were purpose-built and put into service as military lorries or were commandeered by local army regiments. Several similar surviving examples of this lorry also have re-registered plates. A source online confirms this was used as an army truck when new. Either way, it is incredible that this 80-year-old veteran is still working!

“A concise poem about our work as stated elow
A place without being
a thought without thinking
creatively, two dimensions
suspended animation
possibly a perfect imitation
of what was then to see.
A frozen memory in synthetic colour
or black and white instead,
fantasy dreams in magazines
become imbedded inside my head.
Artistic views
surrealistic hues,
a photographer’s instinctive eye:
for he does as he pleases
up to that point he releases,
then develops a visual high.
- M R Abrahams
