A really nice punchy shot - and an unerring sense of when to switch to B&W too! Tim

Well spotted photo, I like as the man is almost lost in the metal traverses. MCsaba

Hi Folks, thanks for the comments. I liked the casual pose in amongst the overwhelming weight of the metal. David, the lens was my Sigma 105 f2.8 Macro. Funnily enough, I find myself using it as a short telephoto more than macro. I've discovered I haven't got the patience for bugs :-) Thanks, Marc.

Wonderful contextual shot, Marc. And you captured the worker in just the right posture. Interesting that this is at 105mm....were you using the 70-200, some other zoom, or a prime? -- David

this is impressive, Marc, and gives a good sense of his smallness in realtion to the huge machinery around him, and yet his body language is very relaxed and assures.
Flick.

Hi Mark,
I like how you've done this with the guy nestled in all of these large pieces of metal. It really brings my gaze back to the figure.
