Washing Windows High in the Sky by taffy

Washing Windows High in the Sky

I knew that window washing had started so I had my camera and lens ready. But I'd missed them the past 2 days. The day I took this (Friday), I heard a bump at our living room window and grabbed my camera and snapped off about 10 shots before they disappeared down to the next floor. There were two guys, and they moved fast, but so casually you would have thought they were 3 feet above the ground, not 33 levels high!
Oh my gosh, what a scary job! I wonder how harnessed in they are? Cool pov of the washers!

Makes me feel dizzy. They must be very brave to do work like this. If it were for me the windows would never be cleaned, at least higher than the second floor.

Not something you would consider as a secondary career? Great shot.

Not a job for me, don't know how they do it. Love how he has one hand for himself and one for his work, a piece of advice taken from the sailing community I think.
Wonderful shot and planning in your part.

oh my, that is the same as the guys that suddenly appeared at the skybridge that crosses between the Petronas Towers at level 41/42 in Kuala Lumpur. Even their sponges are attached to the cages so they can't drop them

What a scary job that must be! fab capture :)
May 3rd, 2015

The swirls of soap bubbles look so cool across your window.... I am not focusing on how high up this is. I see his hand, gripping onto the outside window pane. I'd be white knuckling it, but no evidence of that here.
May 4th, 2015  
WOW...well done. Took my eyes a couple seconds to see it correctly. Love it Taffy! Looks scary to me!
May 4th, 2015  
There is no way I would do this! Nice shot but makes my stomach roll over just looking at it.
May 4th, 2015  
Cool shot! And thanks for the story!
May 4th, 2015  
Fabulous capture - sure tells the story. Fav

How wonderful to get your windows washed for all those super views! I guess its incorporated in your rate or somewhere! Funny what we like on 365 (fav) - window washing! But its the good composition really!
May 4th, 2015  
Great shot, rather them than me. I hope they pay them well.
May 4th, 2015  
Haha...I've hunted down a window washer or two since starting this project just like you! I consider them fair game lol
May 4th, 2015  
Oh yes what a fantastic capture Taffy! Perfect timing! Love the swipe of suds! I have often watched in awe guys like this up high on London's tall buildings . Great to be able to get a shot of them from the inside! Fav!
May 4th, 2015  
Amazing shot, not my choice of occupation.
May 4th, 2015  
Even with safety harness this looks dangerous but it makes a great shot
May 4th, 2015  
Looks like a job you could apply for once you're done teaching!
May 4th, 2015  
This must be one of the scariest jobs ever! Such great timing. I really like the swirl in front of his face. Fav
May 4th, 2015
