Amazing seeing the sign unfurled like that. Awesome captures! This sign must surely get people's attention! Sadly, though, at the high risk-taking of others. Thanks, Sidney, for having such educational posts!
Love the sequence to these shots, they tell a storry. however looking at the shots you posted yesterday, don't these guys wear any safety harnesses, I am soo scared for them.
Thanks for sharing those great captures with us! Like you, I felt sorry for those workers. They are literally hanging on the bars for their life! It's so sad.
Impressive great and the immense thing of the announcement. And the value of the workers. Without discussion you are the best one. I congratulate to you.
WOW! How long did you stay there and take photos? You are amazingly dedicated, Sidney! Lovely billboard story.
By the way, I finally got to writing about billboards. Manila Metroblogging was the perfect venue. And I wrote a little bit about this series of yours and left a link. ;)
absolute fantastic!

Really impressive! i like how youare snapping the scene...

I still can't get over how large these billboards are. It must be even more dangerous to have so many workers up there at once (shakes head). :-(

Wow, that's a big sign!

A fine series. I appreciate your concern about potentially distracting the workers. It also says something about your patience. Remarkable shots.
