You watch yourself. Construction sites are far more dangerous than people think, and injuries are rarely trifling. An office worker might get a paper cut if not careful, a construction worker will lose a couple of fingers, or worse. Be really aware of what is above you. Things can go sideways really quickly and a couple of thousand pounds of out of control steel isn't pretty when it hits someone from a few stories up.

Re: GESO Construction V
Thanks, William! Funny thing about this shoot: when I 1st approached those in charge about a photo story of the project, the project manager was enthusiastic, but he warned me that construction workers don't like their photos taken, so I best prepare myself. Well, he was only very wrong. When I get on the site for a shoot, usually a few construction workers find a quick minute to tell me, "You should have been here yesterday. We did . . . ." Or workers ask to have their picture taken with another worker. Or a worker will shout out, "The action is about to start over there . . . ." Or I'm asked, "you got these pics on a web site or something?" It's been a lot of fun, but at the end of a shoot, I'm really tired after being out in the sun with hard hat and boots and two cameras around my neck, all the while navigating the terrain and trying to not to get in anyone's way. I have to make sure I present myself as capable, safety aware, and discreet, or I'll be yanked off the site real quick.
