Thanks, Ann!

I’m experimenting with cropping; it’s tricky to do without losing context. Stay 
tuned.

“Jobs” and “assignments” (and “pickups”) are synonymous in this context, from 
what I have heard and read. (If Knarf was still here, he could fill us in).

Rick ..
This is a more striking photo than I thought at first glance with my 
sleepy morning eyes..  I think in color it is less telling of what is 
going on now in the world and your subject line..- and the guy looks 
like he is just taking a break between assignments.. in B the patterns 
pop more but it is more somber - ironically I missed a key element that 
pops in the color photo and could be overlooked in the B with geometry 
as it is.  I think some tighter cropping from the bottom up would have 
insisted I look at it.

I think it really needs the color to see what is happening.

A tight horizontal crop might work in B, but I think the color really helps 
make him stand out from the background

PESOs (2) - Between Jobs

I was downtown (“in Center City,” as we say in Philly) to get a couple of watch 
batteries replaced. I took my camera for a short walk. This is the only shot I 
like.
