 my first ever cellphone entry. And not a bad result! )).

I was not planning to enter this challenge, but I was riding my bike to work last Tuesday, on the last submission day, and suddenly saw 7 people on scaffolds right one under another (I cropped out the 7th later, the frame would be too long with him :)). I thought "Whoa, what are the chances!" and pulled my phone, but then I looked closer and realized it was not such an unbelievably lucky coincidence, since they were disassembling the scaffold and needed to bring pieces of it down to the ground. Still, a pretty cool find, and immediately seemed perfect for the Margaret Bourke-White tribute. I don't know her work very well, but from what I've seen, she loved to shoot people at work, and many of her images were very rhythmically organized.

Great and very enviable find. Some drama too with the cloud of dirt/debris being dumped by the top guy raising the question if those below know what's coming.
