images from the new school site:













It sure has become a very busy place this last week. K10D, 16-45 and 50-200. Exif is intact.

Comments are always welcome

Pretty quite an extensive construction there. I like the 3rd image the best where the worker and the setting are both revealed in a single image.

Thanks for sharing these shots

Better in your backyard than mine! I think I'd move.

Nice series Heinrich. I like the action shot of the auger flinging the dirt.

(I also noticed from this and other shots you have taken that almost all the homes in that community are exclusively constructed with grey vinyl siding. Most newer homes here have at least the front done in brick if not the entire exterior. Is there no brick factory nearby?)

I agree with Scott, Heinrich. I love the sky in the first shot, but the 3rd one really sets he tone of what is happening. Thanks for sharing.

I bet when the school is done they will enjoy your photos of the progression.

Nice series Heinrich I like the action of the auger as well. It will be interesting indeed you will have a documentary series of the school being built.

And Jeff this is Alberta - booming economy - vinyl vs. Brick which do think is quicker to build unless the house was built to spec and not part of the ever-growing new 'subdivisions' most will be vinyl (unless you get into the 7 digit neighborhoods) - that is if you can find people to build the house.

Thank you, it's a fair size project. The school will be K - 6.

Thank you Jeff and like Dave said allready this is booming Alberta no time to waste. The best that you'll see in brick is a bit of trim along the sides of the garage doors. But the vinyl comes in whitish, pinkish, greenish, brownich, grayish and whatever elsish you can think of

Take care

Hi Pat, yes it started out when some neighbours ask me to do a from before to after. It used to be geen space with some soccer fields but the school was scheduled to be build there from the beginning, just took longer than anticipated.

Take care,

Hi Dave and thank you. Unfortunately you are absolutely right about Alberta's economy but at least around here Real Estate is slowing down a bit and prices are coming down a bit as well. BTW, we had about 8" of snow this morning.

Take care,

[Heinrich Lohmann]

Thank you Georg for the kind words.
