Female construction workers are prolific in Bangladesh's construction industry. The way they work from dawn till dusk is nothing short of a marvel. However, I don't know whether any discrimination exists or not. Didn't have the chance to speak to any of them, yet.
Aftabnagar, Dhaka,
Bangladesh.
Photo taken in Times Square, Manhattan, NY.
This sculpture by Sergio Furnari is based on the 1932 classic photograph "Lunch Atop a Skyscraper" by Charles C. Ebbets.
Lunch atop a Skyscraper (New York Lunching on a Crossbeam) is a famous black-and-white photograph taken during construction of the RCA Building at 30 Rockefeller Center in Manhattan, New York City, United States.
The full story about the photo is here:

On one of this large development's many new houses. Probably not affordable for most people, unless with a forever mortgage. Even though that's the south side I'm surprised there's not a single window. iPhone 8+ photo.
We don't pay enough tribute to the backbone of Shanghai's construction fervor, as unhappy as Shanghai residents seem to be by all the Expo-driven noise and air pollution.
We crane our necks to identify the peaks of skyscrapers that overrun the city but tend to sweep over the ubiquitous orange and red helmets dotting the sides of streets - hauling concrete, climbing into sewers and soldering windows in unfinished buildings. They are migrant labor that are building the China dream but are rarely able enjoy the luxurious fruits which the well-off take for granted.
They are also the unrecognized residents of Shanghai, and in many cases, looked down upon because they are mostly from out of the city, or “wai di ren” from poorer and far-flung provinces of China. Perhaps they make enough to help the family back home to buy a pig or send their children to school. If they are lucky, they can help their families buy a television with the help of generous rural subsidies that the government recently introduced.
This gentleman, in a group of mingling workers, was most pleased to have his portrait taken with the Shanghai World Financial Centre (SWFC) as his workplace backdrop. Upon looking at the resulting image, he scratched his head and stared back at the building, as if it had never occurred to him to do so.
For having poured their blood, sweat and tears into building Shanghai's skyline for minimum wage, they ultimately have no ownership or belonging in that part of China's dream.

As I looked across the street I was walking in Downtown Atlanta, Georgia, I noticed that there were men working on renovating this apartment building. There were guys literally on EVERY balcony when I first spotted them, but as I was raising my camera, two or three went back into the apartment they were working on and did not re emerge. Oh well....

My first time-lapse video.
Plant Potter - it only has 100 views :( haha.
Feedback would be loved.
Basically taken right before everyone heads home from work in the afternoon. A lot of people head down Guadalupe south so we get pretty decent traffic that way, its wonderful to watch;)
Time Lapse Video from Austin, Tx.
Corner of 3rd & Guadalupe.
1 photo every 5 seconds. 15fps with Quicktime. So that comes to a little less than 2 hours, about 1300 pictures here. I liked the slower fps rate so I can closely keep an eye on my favorite parts, like the construction worker towards the right of the screen, the airplanes thru the night sky, the crane, the lights in the buildings...and things like that :) Too much faster in this video I felt like it was rushing through..
I want to thank everyone for their views & comments and all around support. Means a lot to get good feedback, I'm sure that's why a lot of us are on flickr in the first place. help get that boost to go out and be even more active. So feel free to glance through my photostream, I've turned into somewhat of a gardener lately - I'd love comments & feedback in that arena if it interests anyone.
Here's my Plants & Such Set - contains a few Time Lapse Videos too :)

Although Bill did not mention this place in his letters it was the subject of his camera in 1943 when he happened to be in Pouce Coupe, British Columbia. At the time, my father was a civilian worker on Alaska Highway construction, based in Dawson Creek, just 10km to the northwest. Dad loved to roam around. Knowing that he sometimes walked 20 miles in a day, it is possible he got to Pouce Coupe on foot.
