Most photographers prefer to work in good weather and good light. However bad weather can offer advantages to photographers as well. I saw this man treading water during a rain-squall next to his boat at the mouth of the Amazon River. He was holding a tool in his hand, and seemed to be hard at work on his boat as the surging waters of the Amazon delta seem about to swamp him. It is an image about not only work, but also risk. The job at hand may be simple maintenance, yet given this situation, it may not be as simple as it seems. This image is all about man's skill and persistence in the workplace, while dealing with the force of nature itself.
