 Taken at the Seattle piers - I doubt this picture will do very well, but I thought it was too funny not to submit it to this challenge.

I wish this were an advanced challenge though, as I'd really like to clean up some of the dust spots and the bright spot on the left side of the image. Well, you have to work with what you have, so this is my contribution to this challenge.

Great timing to capture this shot, I really love it. The sky seems a little gray though and maybe a sepia might have looked good. Nice job.

Excellent shot! Great detail on the wall & a good pose by the worker. Nice title too! - 8

I think there are too many elements in this picture. An eye is wandering for a while but it doesn't find any particular point. If the photo would have taken closer to the person and so that the other half of his face would have been in the photo the picture would have got a meaning.

This is a really fun image, the title makes me laugh, his posture is great. I would like to see a little more contrast to bring out the whites and blacks.

A rare occasion where a title fits well with the shot in a humorous way - extra point for that! Other than that, it's a little busy - but then most of the construction shots are inherently busy. Overall well done.

A bit of a stretch to me, but nice contrasts.
