These roofers were working in the hot Texas sun. I shot at ISO 800 to get some grain in the shot. I processed to get a hot look to match the job.

This is an interesting angle and a good subject. The lighting bothers me a bit - the house/roof and the background seem to be the same shade, making it hard to tell what's going on at the edges; and his face is heavily in shadow, which looks a bit awkward in a challenge that has me looking at the people.

The composition of the photograph - the way the house is on an angle - works nicely, as does the close proximity of the two men, helping to keep focus on them.

Sharp photo! I'm not sure that this coloration works here...see how the edge of the roof melts into the sky? Plus the shadow across the worker's face hides quite a bit. Challenge well met. 7 Rob the Swash

Good angle and composition. I like how your eye is drawn to your subjects by the lines in the construction.

I like the duotone, and the lines all work well in this.

Men at work. Definately meets challenge. I do think it would have been better in color. The sepia tone just doesn't seem to go here. 5 Good luck in the challenge.

just as an observation..... "hot job" would may have been better expressed with this photo in color... The sepia tones everything down and makes a solemn feeling.
Excellent composition, and decent interest level.
