My brother (upper) and his friend, hard at work on our driveway. The mood here is the intensity of childhood play.
Taken in the late 1950s.
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.
"Stripping after work"
Somewhere on Fulton Street.

The demolition for the 6th Street Bridge took place Superbowl weekend without incident. The first stage of the nine-month long demolition was to dismantle the 200 foot long section spanning over the 101 FWY. Crews worked around the clock beginning late on Friday evening, and reopening the 101 on Sunday morning.
Nice example of chromatic abberation which comes free with this lens for photos straight from the camera!

Men At Work . Unit Block . M Street, SE . WDC . Saturday morning, 26 November 2005
While having breakfast with Richard at McDonald in SW at the corner of South Capitol and I Streets I'd read an article in December 2005 isssue of The Southwester www.swdc.org pertaining to the 23 October 2005 dedication of the Peace Memorial Garden which on 1 October, located at the corner of M and South Capitol Streets in SW, I had unknowingly photographed two Men At Work www.flickr.com/photos/perspective/54733736/in/photostream/ who at the time were preparing the soil for the future garden.
When Richard mentioned that he was going outside, of McDonalds, to the patio to take a smoke and would return, inside, in a few mintues to continue reading the paper I'd say that I would head back home ... and take some pictures ... along the way!
Wanting to photograph the newly installed Peace Memorial Garden I'd walk along Eye, turn right unto First Street and walk toward M Street. Since in September 2005 I had begun photographing "Men At Work" www.flickr.com/photos/perspective/31594129/in/set-705008/ in the Unit Block of M Street and so as to add a few more images to that collection www.flickr.com/photos/perspective/sets/705008/ I would take this series of images before heading over to Peace Memorial Garden, which is just a block up the street.
