Karachiites have learned to live without necessities, sleeping under the sky on the rooftops has become a norm. You would be surrounded by the lights all around (huge lights of National Stadium & Office lights of SSGC) but this country doesn't really believe in providing lower middle class with enough electricity so they can sleep sound at night to get back to 9 to 5 jobs.

 

This is the picture taken on rooftop of residential building at the load shedding time. I am sure you can imagine the frustration one goes through when load shedding is only targeted towards the people who would have two fans and two bulbs (generally are replaced by energy savers to avoid unaffordable bills) So the reality is absolutely opposite to what you see in the picture.

 

ODC-SMOKE AND MIRRORS

Sundown over Manhattan's Upper WestV Side

hdr panorama on the rooftop of The Plaza in downtown orlando...

 

Sneaking through a staircase, up at least 10 flights of stairs, finally reaching the top.. Open the door, and let it close behind me.. yes, I was stuck on the top of the roof.. an employee of the building finally came out for a cigarette. Got down through the building, the eyes of security on me as I just walked out.. worth it..

Hanging out the rooftop as the sun flutters through the treetops...a great place for solitude, just watching the world go by...pretty awesome.

Curious larger than life figure 'relaxing' on top of Sands Restaurant on the sea front in Port Talbot, South Wales. Being just a statue he won't be too worried by the fact there just wasn't much sun!

Looking down at Llandudno, from the secret plateau, up past Elephant's Cave.

These lucky guys had access to a higher rooftop than I did. I caught them taking pictures of the Empire State Building during sunset.

I saw this interesting rooftop while I was walking through Nei One Old Street, Taiwan and couldn't resist taking a picture of it.

Taken from a friends apartment in Manhatten.

 

Taken with my old medium format Rolleiflex. Shot on 120 b/w film, then scanned with a Nikon Supercoolscan 900.

10.20.07 : Such a gorgeous view on a sunny day...it made climbing up all those steep, sidewinding streets worth it! =P

Rooftop of abandoned building, fallen victim to corporate greed

 

The Story

 

The company closed its doors in the middle of the night without even letting the workers know, they came to work and were locked out unable to even retrieve their belongings.

 

The remains were auctioned off, lockers still have clothes in them.. pretty sad when you work for a place for years only to get a big slap in the face for your efforts.

 

Ever wonder where the sense of pride and dedication to the workplace went? Walk through a place like this and you'll be reminded pretty quick.

 

It seems as well, that the employees were stiffed for more than $700,000 back pay and vacation pay medical bills and their 401k.

 

To make matters worse, Sunset Bank Dragged them through a bureaucratic mess for more than a year forcing some employees to face personal bankruptcy.

 

In the end, the owner was indicted in 10 counts of theft, fraud, robbing the 401k fund and other acts of pure greed, he received 7.5years in prison and left behind many lives devastated.
