Workers of the city in business life

I am drawn to this old suspension bridge in one of our local parks. I know when the best light is but, even better, I know its history as a WPA-build in 1938. I feel the pride of those workers every time I get down here with my camera and love taking it in b/w. A parks' colleague did replace the suspension cabling around 2000 or so.

To earn 1,000 Sri Lankan rupees, workers must harvest at least 18kg per day otherwise they get a lower rate per kilo. These fees are set by the government which also leases the tea estates to companies

The winter morning shadows in Richfield County Park highlight the efforts of the WPA development here in the late 1930s, such as infrastructure (the "highway" bridge shown), tree planting ,etc.

walking around the ashram premises, I found the cow shed in the north east corner.

A group of workers engaged in a landscape gardening project in Cape Town. Circa 1978.

A worker Carpenter Ant towers over her large herd of tiny aphid 'cows'. With eyes positioned on top of her head, she cannot see what is taking place beneath her jaws, so she must rely on her senses of touch and smell. Delicate, sensitive mouthparts for collecting tiny drops of honeydew are hidden behind those massive jaws.

Honnêtement, ce jour du 14 décembre 2022 était une journée en or pour la photo de rue, alors ne vous étonnez pas si vous en voyez d'autres à venir... :-)

C'est tout le problème des jours fastes : il faut quand même bien choisir plutôt que tout publier d'un coup et savoir que peu de gens les verront toutes.

En cette période de Nouvelle Année 2023, je tiens cependant à préciser que cette averse de neige risque fort d'être la première et la dernière de l'hiver 2022 - 2023.

Au moins je l'aurai immortalisée !

On aura quand même eu UNE SEMAINE D'HIVER cette année !

Quel luxe.

La preuve s'il en est que le réchauffement climatique... Hein ? Hé. Oh. Bon. :o)

Cependant cela ne doit pas nous faire oublier que, une semaine ou trois mois, travailler dans le froid et sous la neige n'est une bonne nouvelle que pour les privilégiés que les photographes sont. :-)
