Setting Sun Illuminating a Construction Crane
Posted for Debbie’s Six Word Saturday. Also posted for SueW’s Weekend Challenge: Leap. Now I could say that it would be one mighty large leap to jump from the ground upwards about 25 stories to land at the top of this construction crane. But it is more accurate to say that I am taking a photography course with homework assignments, which is causing me to take risks, break out of my comfort zone and take a leap of faith! Which of course is what artistic study is supposed to do. And it is definitely honing my technical skills! These were sequential shots with the ISO set at 800 for both. The other settings:
Top photo: f/13, 1/4000
Bottom photo: f/11, 1/400
And yes, I did some post processing (which I wasn’t allowed to do for the homework assignments), but very, very little. I was quite pleased with the way they turned out!
Patterns
It’s not a surprise that patterns exist in construction. If they didn’t, you couldn’t support a roof, or build a staircase, or have walls. But watching a building in the process of being constructed helps you realize just how many patterns there are. How many patterns can you see on this rainy day?

A Photo a Week Challenge: Work
My apologies. I am a day late posting for this challenge, but here is my take on “Work,” as observed from my 10th floor kitchen balcony.
I am grateful that someone is cleaning on this steep a roof.
I would not want to go down this dark a hole that needs air circulation in order to repair telephone lines.
And repairing roofs has never been my preference. Although since this roof is a flat one, I wouldn’t mind.
However I would absolutely LOVE working on this construction site. (Even in the rain.) I wish I was young enough and had the skills.
