Key Maker in Erbil-Kurdistan

Dozing keymaker in Phuket Town. On 18th July 2009 a group met in Phuket Town as part of the worldwide photo walk. Read all about it on my blog @ www.jamiesphuketblog.com/2009/07/phuket-photo-walk.html.

This key maker works in a small, cluttered, ground level opening in the souk. One can tell what he does by the paper lining the shutters with the large red key and the myriad of smaller blue keys. He also hangs keys above his shop as seen in the next shot in this series. The edge of the "sign" is visible at the top of this shot, but the souk alleys are very narrow, and I was unable to get the "sign" in this shot.

Key Maker in Erbil-Kurdistan

One day, I will summon the courage to ask the roadside keymaker for permission to take his photo, instead of sneaking a pic of his untended stall while he's away on a toilet break.

Right at the start of Chor Bazaar, stands the Keymaker. Back in the days when the bazaar, was indeed a thieves market, I wonder how many locks did he help break into. Or maybe, he was upright & honest craftsman who refused to taint his craft and hung on... like an old lock, while people around him moved on.

the market is closing in.

He looked up just as I was about to take the pic.

It was common to find lockmakers and keymakers in the old days but this trade seems to be on the decline. State-of-the-art burglars have encouraged state-of-the-art security systems to be installed in most buildings so who needs these simple locks?

Many parts of Shanghai are labyrinthine walkways that wind through a mash of dark brown brick buildings, windows and balconies jutting out here and there in Escheresque fashion -- telltale signs of building on the go. Mixed-use development now takes shape in a number of neighborhoods in a way that expresses what kind of culture this city wants to embrace. In particular, artist studios, boutiques, fashionable designer restaurants, and cafes are taking over the street-level occupancies, while residents continue to live decidedly ordinary lives in back or upstairs units. I walked all over these streets in an artsy district of Shanghai and not once passed a tailor, newsstand, keymaker, grocery store, or liquor store.
