the sign says works. he does not. for a few minutes the city continues without him, the traffic, the noise, the endless construction. he leans against a pole and disappears into his phone. everyone does this. millions of times a day. we stand in one place and leave for another. the body remains. the mind travels. when he looks up again, nothing will have changed. except maybe everything.
Construction workers taking a break. There are thousands of expat workers, facing unimaginable hardship for minmum wages. All of which they usually send to their familes back home. They are however extremely underappreciated and most Maldivians seem to treat them with hatred, as if they are a lesser race.

Hungry Horse Dam, Montana, November 1948. A.E. McCloud, photographer.
I've spent much of the summer documenting historic dams from the Dakotas to Washington. Ran across this wonderful photo in the Bureau of Reclamation archive in Boise.
in madrid, the streets tell their own stories. here, color cuts through shadow like a defiant streak of life. a construction worker pauses, wrapped in neon, his silhouette carved sharp against the playful panels of yellow, blue, and orange. a man walks by, cane tapping softly, swallowed by shadow but not erased. the city moves, quietly chaotic, the hum of work and the poetry of ordinary people set against a canvas of bold light and darker corners.
vibrant, raw, and layered with contrast—this is madrid in a moment, caught between bright optimism and quiet mystery.
I have a lot of respect for these guys - I'd kill myself on a roof - this was on the very top of a 2 sory house.

As always, scaffolding and construction is taking over the downtown area and this year not even the war memorial wasn't safe from it.
For some reason the scaffolding around the angel up on top of the memorial caught my eye today. I think it was the cloud cover behind it that really made the scene for me.
Anyway, hope everyone has had a good day.

And he dreamed, and behold, there was a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven. And behold, the angels of God were ascending and descending on it!

Walking by, I was interested in what lies beneath the sidewalk. Not much, apparently. But look! . . .
Above, the young construction worker eyes me (and my camera) warily. I gave no sign or indication of my awareness, intent on my shot.
Above him, the hair salon stylists in the window at right are posing for the camera!
Thanks Ladies for making this shot happen!
Peace.

Originally designed by Hans Beck, Geobra / Brandstätter first presented the little 7,5 cm plastic toys in January 1974 at the Nuremberg Toy Fair. The first three kinds were the construction worker (which originally had a little white-orange vest, too), an American Indian and a knight.

With the temperatures rocketing back up to seasonal more and more people are venturing outside over lunch hour, so while I was traveling between buildings today I had the camera in hand and thought I may as well work on my street photography.
It's one area of photography that I feel very weak in, and need to force myself to break out of my comfort zone every now and then.
Since one of the main sights of summer in Ottawa is construction, I felt it fitting to get a shot of these guys lined up and enjoying a bit of a rest.
Just a normal summer day in the city.
Hope everyone has had a good day.

This was my first time to approach a stranger to be photographed.
While walking towards him he suddenly opened the big gates behind him showing what was going on inside - it's a construction site. It's like telling me welcome to my world. I was just amazed with what he did so I thought I'd take a photo of him and share his story. And the coolest part was when I asked him to pose, he said you want my hat on?
It's just an awesome feeling to have this portrait. Hats off to you brother!:)

A city like this doesn't get built alone. It takes the effort and sweat of lots of men. Today, here's my tribute to them.
