This man is spending hours creating piles of dirt as he works on a turf renovation project in this city park. I backlight him, turning him into a silhouetted abstraction. There were at least a dozen workers doing similar things, and I make him symbolically represent all of their labors. By using my camera’s multiple frame “burst” mode, I was able to shoot twenty or thirty pictures of him within a minute or so, and caught him at the moment his thrusting shovel hangs poised above the dirt, and the lean of his legs rhythmically repeat the lean of the shadows on the wall at far right. The long shadows imply the symbolic presence of a sundial that marks the hours of work that has been done and has yet to be done. That symbolic sundial marks the end of the four level wall behind him, preceded by four repeating bushes.The wall carries the horizontal flow of action across the entire frame.
