Taking a Break

Description

Portrait of a roofing crew. These guys were taking a break, with their cool watermelon, from a very hot day of work on my neighbors' roof. An afternoon thunderstorm was moving in and I was hoping they'd soon climb down from there to avoid the lightning. They did. For the PG101 portraits theme.

I love it! What a great capture of them taking their break. Even with the clouds, it looks like a summer's day of hard work. #11714028
