Fresh fish fillets

Fresh fish fillets
Fishing boats arrive in Kalk Bay after a long shift out at sea. Fishermen hop off the boat and unload crate after crate of ice-covered fish. A few men are responsible for scaling the fish, but this lady is the one who knows just how to cut them up into perfect-looking fillets. I watched her for a while and it was clear that she's being doing this job for years - she worked efficiently and absolutely precisely.

I would have bought a fish from her, but thought it not wise to attempt the long train trip home with a freshly cut fish under my arm.
