Machinery: 2 Shovels

There is a lot of construction at and around Rice University right now.
I really liked the positioning of these two shovels.
The one powered by machinery is "working"
while the one powered by man (lower right) is currently "resting".

The fellow in the hard-hat will have to takeover when the Cat runs out of fuel.
I find it very interesting that he is standing that close.
