March 22 2004:
The Woking-a Lineman

Its been a day of early 'April Showers', that is, one of bright sunshine the one moment and heavy downpours the next. Went down the road to photograph a cherry blossom tree when I noticed this yellow jacket shining through the vegetation. Had to have a look...

Nice composition!

Cool capture! I like the lines shooting off in all directions.

Guest		24-Mar-2004 02:22
Excellent perspective! I really like this.

Good find. Nice composition.

This is so way cool Ray. Love that yellow coat against the blue sky.

Norman Hart (ex-BT engineer)		23-Mar-2004 10:54
Hmmm..... that hammer (on the side of the pole) doesn't look too safe!!!

Guest		23-Mar-2004 06:55
GREAT colors here! That yellow is poppin'! Are those your phone wires!?? I hope not! LOL!!

Guest		23-Mar-2004 05:38
Hope you didn't get stung!

Carol E Sandgren		23-Mar-2004 00:28
Glad you caught one of the sunny moments, Ray! This looks precarious... The wires converging to the pole really draw the eye into the action. Nice colors! What would this have looked like in the downpour?

Guest		22-Mar-2004 22:35
dangerous position Ray :)

Geoff Delderfield Photography		22-Mar-2004 21:42
Great shot. Very crisp.

Guest		22-Mar-2004 20:31
Great, great image!

Pall Gudjonsson		22-Mar-2004 18:09
I love the angle and framing og this !

christianl		22-Mar-2004 17:22
Cool capture and bright colors.

Adalberto Tiburzi		22-Mar-2004 16:35
Sure much more interesting than a cherry blossom tree... Ah, the power of Chance! ;-)

Chris Brooker		22-Mar-2004 16:08
You mind that he doesn’t drop that hammer on your head. Well noticed, it makes a good shot.

The yellow and blue go well together! I bet he's having a nap. Nobody would ever suspect...

Si Kirk		22-Mar-2004 15:58
you got the showers as well Ray? I love the image judging by the bundle of wires he has there he will be up there a while

jeanb		22-Mar-2004 15:52
Nice perspective. Great exposure.

Guest		22-Mar-2004 15:51
COol one. Love the lines and colors. NICE!

Guest		22-Mar-2004 15:43
This all works very well for me...the deep blue sky contrasting with the green coat and the lines radiating out from the pole. Nice shot.

snootydog		22-Mar-2004 15:38
Where I come from, this coat is what the ambulance workers and paramedics wear. So I was looking at your thumbnail wondering what terrible thing could have happened to a utility pole! This is a great shot -- I love the composition.
