For Half Nekkid Thursday And fear not, Gentle Viewers, this will not be a blog you must avoid on Thursdays because I'm only doing this o...
you always hang out down at the docks waiting for the men to come in from their long lonely jaunts at sea?
ReplyDeleteJeez pal, I'm gone for one day and you've got a dozen shots posted!! What's with that? And furthermore--explain all the aerials... they're the best. Love those shots!!!!
ReplyDeletetrout: You wanna know something? You are right. These guys at the wharf were WORKING and not on exhibit. They did more work in those few minutes than I do in a few months. They did ask if they were going to be in a newspaper or magazine and I told them no, but maybe on a website. They were satisfied with that although they never asked for the URL. heh heh
ReplyDeleteI have 2 thoughts about these People at Work shots.
1. I'm always honored by the way I am welcomed and treated and how they explain their jobs to me and what they do. Be it the Carnies, or these guys. People are usually interested in what they do and like when other people are, too.
2. People are not their jobs. I find it easier to take picture of people at work than not because at least they understand why you might want the photo. And you are taking a photo of their role, not of them.
bassett: I did explain them. I'm very tall.
And such a ne'er do well, jk. I picture you slouching in the shadows with all your, um, equipment.
ReplyDeleteThese are great shots.
And the whole thing about people at work - not only willing to have their picture taken, but unselfconscious about it. They have other things to do than worry if their hair is combed.
