  4. Karl, amazing, eh? The big meat truck had to park (actually, double-park) out on busy Agripas Street and the man made a few trips on foot to a butcher shop inside the market place. Just a minute or two to walk. It was my first time to see this!

  9. Gracious! I hope he has something protecting his head from the meat or he could end up smelling. What a photo capture!

  10. People who get their steer as lovely cuts of steak, so often do not realise that it comes from a well hung carcass and can actually be transported by back rather than refrigerated van.
    Love your colourful shot Dina.

  11. I live near our market and this is not an uncommon sight in the morning... When I was young I did it a bit myself, but only with frozen meat, working for a ship chandler.

    Dina, thank you so much for the link you sent me. I really enjoyed the site.

  13. Somehow, "open air meat" was a surprise. I'm glad you explained in answer to Karl's question.
    But a very interesting photo, and I read all the other comments, too. I agree about "the everday-ness of your world"!
