Hard at work

Images of people working, some hard, some hardly... It is amazing to see people working, trying to make a living in the most adverse of circumstances. And I think it is the most accurate mirror to a society, culture and economy, the way ordinary people on the streets work...

You are welcome, Charu. It is not surprising that the workplace defines an essence of a culture. Afterall, most people spend most of their waking day at work of some kind. Work often defines survival, as well as expressing a sense of place.

Phil, thank you! As you say in your gallery, the workplace does define much more about the culture of a place, doesn't it?!

I like the concept of the gallery itself -- it is very much in the spirit of my own gallery on the workplace at http://www.pbase.com/pnd1/workplace&page=1 The strongest images are the simplest. Less is usually more when it comes to expressive photography.
