Bridge Workers

Ever get the feeling someone's watching you? This construction worker at the 35W St. Anthony Bridge construction site takes a moment to check out the crowds watching him. I have a hard time typing when someone is watching me, I can't imagine working with power tools in the wind 150 feet over the Mississippi River. What a job! Look at all the cool gear these guys have. Just to the left of the red thing in the bottom left is a patch of gray — that's the bridge, everything else scaffolding and gear. Look at all this guy is wearing: a harness, knee pads, gobs of safety gear and a huge tool belt (check out the hammer). For those of us who earn their salt slingin' bits, a real job like this is pretty impressive.
