Hard at Work

Today's word was labour/work so I went with this shot. The city is in the process of building a new bridge to replace one that is 100 years old. Along with that they are also building a new road that leads from the south side down to the river bank. I thought it would be nice to try and capture some of the work going on. The reason it is in b/w is due to the fact that prior to this I had taken a shot in b/w and then forgot to change the setting.
Well back to work tomorrow after having Monday off.

[Nancy]

Great b&w for the word...Hope ou had a great Labor Day! Nice shot!

[pauline briges]

great shot and even better in black and white

[Rob Wareham]

I think the b&w works well for the building site even if it was unintentional. The photo is divided nicely in to thirds.

[Cathie]

Should be interesting to follow this construction, Brian. Hope you had a good weekend!

[Kathy]

its fitting for labour day! B&W works with this one well.

[Anita Campbell]

Nice in B&W, Glad I'm not the only one who does things like that with the camera.... like -- today I took my camera out to find a 365 shot and hadn't put the card back in after taking it out and downloading photos earlier in the afternoon. DUMB!!! (First time for that; hope it's the last!)

[Jnadonza]

cool b/w

[Kerri]

Awesome b&w

[Shirley Chetwynd]

Looks good in Black and white Brian.

[mervyn hobbs]

[Graham Thresher]

A fascinating shot.

[alia_801]

Great shot of the action - you'll have to take pics there regularly to show the progress :)

[Claire]

B&W really suits this

[Claire]

Nice P.J. capture...:)

[Zam]

Very beautiful shot and very nice processing!

[Rob]

I like it! B&W works well!

[Mike Pittman]

B&W gives it that "work" feel. Nicely done.

[Néfertiti]

Du bon travail, tres bien exposee

[Jessica]

[Dixie Goode]

i like the black and white for this. It makes it feel timeless and reminds us of all the centuries of construction that have shaped this planet

[Fisher Family]

Interesting to see this project underway. It would be nice to see the completed constreuction.

[Yorkie]

Fab tones and view

[Hubregt Visser]

Very nice B&W. Great sky.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Terrific shot for the word of the day.

[Sharon]

B&w lends a solidity and permanent sort of feel which matches the big machines and hopefully the building. Nice wide shot.

[Katie]

Looks quite busy - great 'in progress' shot!

[Danny Davies]

Great men at work photo bkb, like your BW.

[Maggiemae]

Busy busy, glad there are some people still wanting this sort of job!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

B/W is good for a work shot- it brings out the grit in the dirt!

[summerfield]

it would be nice if you can make a follow up shot every now and then until the bridge and road are completed. i used to not like black and white, but these days i like them. next thing you know, you should be doing selective colouring process. :-)

[bkb in the city]

@olivetreeann Thanks Ann

[bkb in the city]

@summerfield The selective colouring is something I have never done yet. I will certainly be keeping an eye on this spot
