The tiny Haroon Village is situated opposite the French Embassy. As I walked down one alleyway I saw a lady baking outdoors. Communicating through smiles and gestures she allowed me to photograph her at work. The heat of the tiny oven was intense. Despite my basic desire to taste one of the delicious looking little cakes, I thought I had imposed too much on her generosity. Thank you, lovely lady, whoever you are, for allowing me to share this moment.

The oven is made up of three parts working upwards, (1) a bowl containing coals, (2) the mould for the cakes, (3) a pot containing more coals.
