Workers, a photo from Istanbul, Marmara

Photographer's Note

These 3 workers are employed in a renovation work of a historical building on Istiklal Street in Beyoglu,historically known as Pera.
When I captured them,they were having a break and watching incredibly dense pedestrian traffic on the street almost 7/24.
More info on Istiklal Street:

Beyoğlu İstiklal Caddesinde tarihi bir binanın yenileme inşaatında çalışan işçilerin mola anı.

Hello Emin. In interesting picture full of contrasts. Here the wall with graffiti, before the workers. Both are colorful. This realistic picture from the world of work pleases me well. Rgds, Wolfgang.

Hello Emin,
Interesting composition with the artwork graffiti and the workers resting. I like the colours and textures and the way the workmen are standing in a triangle which draws you in to the photograph.
Have a good Day.

Merhaba
Emin, I am always drawn to photos of ordinary daily life. I like the fact that these three are obviously a group yet there is no interaction among them - just an ordinary break in an ordinary day. Nicely composed.
