is this the start or the end of a work day?
great capture of exuberance in that man's face and a wonderful bit of storytelling left open to interpretation- is he happy to be coming or happy to be going, or is his presence there not relevant at all? :-)
just love it! #951591

thanks for the comments! I can't tell you how much fun it is to have people comment on your work... you know, I really should put more details about the photograph into the description...but I feel like I come from a place of explaining too little as to not overstate the point. and for me the point of this piece is the gentleman with the wonderful smile. he was working, he was laughing, and he was making the work every other person in the room was going about (including me) seem that much lighter. I personally was on the clock doing some "event photography" when this guy picked up my spirit...at 8 o'clock! as to the am or pm... that is up to you...hehe...

thanks again,
