    I like the silhouttes here--man and machinery.
    The dangling legs really add something.

    Juano...

    This is a nice shot. The subject of the photo is intentional and the composition brings focus to it. I like triangles created by the crane and how the awning frames the guys in the photo. The silhouette works well here. Actually, I think it wouldn't work as well if everything was in properly lit. Nicely done.

    Thanks for the comments. Maybe I should have called it "silhouettes at work" or something along those lines since they are not shadows as a Dgrinner rightly pointed out.

    I agree. The dangling legs add that bit of extra interest to a good composition.
