I was introduced to Liz and Max Haarala Hamilton's work via A food adventure in Detroit (Guardian, November 23) which showcases their contribution to second issue of Boat Magazine on 'Detroit'.
The Guardian piece made me want to find out more about this husband and wife photography duo.
Having spent many hours with my grandfather in his carpenter's shed, I tend to be attracted to craftmen's work.
Lisa and Max document skilled and unique craft with their photo report on Puukko, the traditional Finnish knife.
You see a knife created under your eyes from foundry to being tested on chopping block.
In the age of food co-ops, locavores, natural foods, another one of their subject-client, The People's Supermarket in London, spoke to me.
This stand alone store offers food made by real people served and sold by real people.
People's Supermarket is owned by its customers-members who can volunteer at the store they have a stake in.
Thanks Liz and Max for taking us for a visit to these 2 unique places in the food galaxy.
