Inspired by "Lunch atop a skyscraper" of C.C. Ebbets. The background was photographed n 1997 from one of the Twin Towers in New York. The workmen were photograped in 2004 on a scaffolding, which was digitally replaced by a steel beam in 2008 to make the photo montage.
Surprisingly workmen's trains on this colliery system were steam hauled despite electrification. Hegang, China, 29th March 2007.
Oh, how nice! The carpenters and other workmen in this detail from a real photo postcard are posing with saws, hammers, and other tools to demonstrate how hard they've been working on the renovation of this house!
But take a look at what that other guy is doing!
For more information, see the full version of this real photo postcard.

Workmen place new cobblestones on the walk at Miradouro da Faja do Condo on the Island of Flores. A lot of effort goes in to maintaining the overlooks and viewpoints in the Azores. I asked these workman if I could take their photos. They said yes but just kept working. Though I didn’t inspect the blocks up close, i think they are made of basalt.
Workmen were in the process of installing several new sculptures at Lake Eola Park in Orlando, FL yesterday. This is one of them. In the foreground, you can see a model of what the final installation should look like.
Workmen doing some maintenance on the phone cables in Queens Street. One looked at me with suspicion.
Workmen clean the torch held aloft by the Statue of Liberty in New York Harbor. Five workmen are attached to the statue by ropes, including one who is a caricature of Rockwell himself, and one African-American in a red shirt. The inclusion of a non-white figure working with whites, apparently only noticed in 2011, contravened a Post policy of only showing people of ethnicity in subservient roles.
The painting came into the possession of Steven Spielberg, who donated it to the permanent art collection of the White House in 1994. It was displayed in the Oval Office during the administrations of Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, and Barack Obama. In January 2017, shortly after the inauguration of Donald Trump, the painting was still in the Oval Office. It was reportedly removed later in 2017, in favor of a portrait of Andrew Jackson.

Some workmen were painting a temporary wooden fence outside the soon-to-be-opened Nickelodeon store in Leicester Square, London. I liked the way the cartoon characters appeared to be peeking stealthily over the fence and checking what was going on in the world outside.
A fantastic old photo of workmen from Gloucestershire city council dated 1894 on the steamroller, photo taken 1920s.
She has to be restricted in where she can go to keep out of the workmen's hair. She just snuck in here through the window for a cuddle!

****This frame was chosen on January 19th 2014 to appear on FLICKR EXPLORE(Highest Ranking: # 168) . This is my Thirteenth photograph to be selected, and my second of the New Year, so a great thrill for me. EXPLORE is Flickr's way of showcasing the most interesting photos within a given point in time -- usually over a 24 hour period.
Flickr receives about 6,000 uploads every minute -- That's about 8.6 million photos a day! From this huge group of images, the Flickr Interestingness algorithm chooses only 500 images to showcase for each 24-hour period. That's only one image in every 17,000!..... so I am really thrilled to have a frame picked and most grateful to everyone who visited, favourite and commented on the frame*****

It was a somewhat surreal moment, looking out of my window as a glorious dipping sun backlit a group of workmen on the rooftop of a house five hundred yards away. Silhouettes of British workmen, against the clock like a troupe of woodpeckers in my brain this last week with their incessant drilling, hammering and general armageddon like armory of noises as they replaced a neighbours ageing roof. And yet at that moment, silhouettes against the sunlight, I could almost forgive them.
....Almost.

Bokeh... just bokeh. I tried to take a quick snap of these workmen as I walked past. I'd forgotten I was focusing at about 60cm. Oops. But here's the thing. I really like this!

Had to go shopping for meat and prescriptions so a walk with Ruby in the two local woods and met two volunteers from Geers Wood erecting our signs. Also a view over the tree tops of the second wood.
