Photographer's Note
Earlier this year I was in Chiang Mai, and at a visit to one of the temples (don't remember which) I came upon this guy doing the roof on the temple, and i figured that he would fit in nicely in my working man theme.

Hello Harry,
An interesting, very colourful sight, and very different from the other shots in your working man theme. Thanks for the post.

Hi Harry,
Splendid color tones of terracotta roof tiles are stunning in your photo. I like this difficult shot (also for worker) while adding him and his surround. Scaffolds are completes messy atmosphere there but the slope of roof and clear blue sky are very nice, congratulations.
Friendly Regards,
Ertugrul

Hi Harry,
The textures and patterns create a nice interesting effect and a good subject. The man blending in with his orange surroundings is great, and the strip of blue sky with scafolding is a nice inclusion in the shot. Nice work!
Regards
Wanda

hi Harry
i like these kind of shot when the clothes of someone are in harmony with the background
it could have been interesting with no sky too even if it's OK like this
regards

Hi Harry,
I think this fits in very well in your working man theme. I particularly like the two-tone colours and the textures of the roof tiles and the worker is perfectly positioned, looking up (like us) at the job in progress. As others have mentioned, I too wondered what it would be like without the sky, but I think in fact the sky works well, adding a contrasting colour and enhancing the sense of space.
It may be my screen but it looks to me like you could increase brightness and contrast slightly to give it a bit more punch.
