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.
A candid street portrait of a construction or civil engineering worker who stands in the middle of the street, smokes a cigarette, and looks at some distant object while touching a chest pocket of his working wear with his right hand. Black and white version.
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.
"Bringing the power of light".
ConEd workers. 8th Avenue.
New York.
in a shaft of harsh midday light, he emerges like a figure from a lost epic—wrapped in dust, framed by silence. each movement slow and deliberate, his presence slices through the stillness of the construction site. it is not just labor that you see, but rhythm, resilience, and the poetry of hands that shape cities.
Well i'm no model and I guess it would have been better taken in an appropriate setting.
That said I could never see myself rocking up to work setting my tripod and light up getting a mix on and telling the lads or customer don't mind me i'll just be taking my own portrait.

it's safe but still pretty windy, hard hats must be worn with chinstraps, no complaints about the view.
This guy makes me think of the construction worker in the Village People.

Nenverso used to work in construction but now does odd jobs now and then, having to do with his old line of work. He's also worked as the "cage keeper" at a place where they host cock-fights, for example. His name is really strange, even by Maracaibo standards.
