This is a shot from my recent New York trip. I was out with a couple of photographers, and we came upon some construction workers on break. We asked if we could take their pictures, and this guy went so far as to pose. Fun morning.

I took this photo on April 19, 2012 while changing trains enroute to visiting my flickr contact John H. Bowman and his wife Ruth Ann in Richmond, Virginia. These construction workers were laying a new concrete walkway near the entrance to Washington Union Station. I couldn't resist snapping this.
In a manner of reliving my trip, I am posting the photo on April 19, 2013, one year after the day it was taken.

Construction workers wear neon colors, especially neon yellow (safety yellow) and fluorescent orange (safety orange), to ensure they are highly visible on the job site. These colors stand out against the typical backgrounds found in construction areas, such as earth tones and urban landscapes, significantly reducing the risk of accidents by alerting drivers and machine operators to their presence.

Bit annoyed with myself for shooting this at an angle. Ideally, I would have liked to have got square on so all the lines were clean horizontal/vertical.
Oh well.

He was sitting on his makeshift porch, mending his bicycle when I approached him. He stood up warily and it was then I realized that he only came up to about my height. For a grown man, he was very short. Not quite midget sized, but he seemed squat, short-limbed and without a visible neck.
I learned later that he was from Anhui, a neighboring poor province, and was actually part of the demolition crew rather than an original resident. Only, he lived by himself rather than with the other workers in the nearby dormitory.
On closer inspection, I realized that he had built his own house entirely from surrounding scrap. Pieces of loose brick created walls, zinc plates and tarp served sturdily as a roof and basic furniture was sourced from abandoned trash.
He had even fashioned fences to enhance his residence, a luxury only available to landed property. Amusingly, the finishing touch was a main “gate” - a loose bamboo fence centerpiece he used to barricade his borrowed property when he left the house.
Not necessarily burglar-proof, but it was his little kingdom on what one would consider prime property in Shanghai. Standing but two blocks behind this shack was a tall, black and sleek condominium, facing Pudong's maniacal skyline, with apartments that started at RMB 1 million (USD 150k) a unit.
When he spoke, spittle would fly and unfortunately end up in my face. Still, he was eager to rant and rave about everything under the sun: inequality of the masses, the government, the weather and even the stray cats.
The sun was setting and I was too emotionally exhausted to listen any more. I braved a smile, swept his saliva off my face and waved him goodbye and good luck with his house and cats.

At the Hudson Yards / Manhattan West construction site off 11 Ave. near 30 st. Viewed from the High Line, July 3, 2015.
Cropped from zoom shot as close as i could get. This is first time with used Pentax DA* f2.8 50-`35mm got a half hour or so before. I did not have a polarizer with me, but for this the sun was shining almost directly into the scene.
