Theme Day - Worker

The City Daily Photo community's theme for December 1 is 'worker' and with that in mind I offer this shot of 2 guys on the outside of a building which I was touring around in looking for art. There was a huge addition to the building going on as you can see in the background. Where would we be without construction workers who often risk life & limb to get the job done?

    Absolutely Pat.. There's no way I'd be up on that scaffolding.. Nice one for today's theme.

    Very nice theme day shot. I agree - these people are so important to our communal life. Not being too "handy" myself, I really appreciate their skills!

    I'm another blogger who appreciates the work of people willing and capable of doing dangerous jobs.

    All in all, I'd rather have his job than the jobs of those window washers who were rescued from the World Trade Center in NY. :-)

    It's a tough job, especially in the winter!

    I agree, the people appearing in the them posts today do a lot of hard work, often dangerous work, we often forget.

    This is a great shot Pat. Yes, it is hard work.

    It certainly looks like that work will be carrying on through the winter.

    Not only do they risk life & limb but it is also hard work.

    Love how you composed this, it looks like a reflection!

    Nicely composed, RedPat. If the construction company is following accepted safety practices, the workers should not be risking life and limb.

    I like the style of the old building, Pat. I do hope the new one does not dwarf it (too much) and that they harmonise together. I am not sure that I could spend my working day going up and down in a crane.
