Description


These four men are just outside the 14th floor of Bangkok City Tower, cleaning the windows. With only a harness and a few ropes fastened up at the roof level, these guys have buckets and squeegees going from one glass panel on to the next. Taken with a FujiFilm FinePix S20Pro. This is an experiment in composition, and it just so happened that the subject matter was monochromatic as well. Thank you very much for stopping by to view this image.

Funny, I do this for a living in the UK, and took a similair picture when I was in Bangkok last November. I could'nt believe how these guys worked, thankfully we have different health and saftey laws in England.

nice shot moe, the vertical/portrait format of the shot really works well with the building... I like how the 4 guys line up in the composition.... and they are right on the third (3rd of the photo i mean not the 3rd floor :)) only thing i could suggest to improve the image would be a polarizing filter to remove some of the flare on the windows in the bottom left of frame (eye tends to get drawn to that 1st) can't wait for the shot from the roof looking DOWN!!!! ;)

Love the shot! The angle it was taken is excellent as it shows us how wide this buiding is. The glare off of the windows tells one how sunny it was, so I'm glad you kept it as is. Very nice work, Moe!

One of the most frightening images I've ever seen on Renderosity (in a bizarre sort of way)! Brrr (shivers).... The monochromatic compo is good; terrific line and perspective. Overall an amazing shot!
