Hello everyone,
Thanks to Keith for last weeks' challenge 'Speed or Motion' , that was a fun subject. Congratulations to all the entrants for the great photos, too.
This week's subject is 'Work' as in, a productive activity. More of a street or candid view of any type of labor, effort or task, whether paid or volunteer.
Any of the day-to-day tasks that make the world go around, from delivering the donuts to the night watchman. Man, woman or child, anyone making an effort to keep everyone safe, happy and useful.
As usual, be creative, tell a story, have fun!
Ron

This shot came to me right away. It's a street scene in Provincetown Ma. and the officer was directing traffic but his attention was on the young lass on the right.--charliezap

Dam Ice! The temperature was about 10 degrees F and these guys were chipping the ice off the sluice-gate chains. Not fun at that temperature.

Took this in Kenya while reporting on a community project there. The whole community works together to build a sand dam across the river making it easier to draw water from shallow wells in saturated sand rather than deep wells in rock! Everyone works in shifts. Everyone. The most amazing project and the most amazing community cohesion I've seen. This little man was just having a short break.
