Nice work! I like the sepia tone quite a bit.

this was taken in Hyderabad, India....

put in a lot of processing.. to get the tone right....

Awesome shot! It looks as if it was almost taken 80 years ago.

These guys toil hard all day in breaking down the huge mass of rock and stone - total manual labor - no huge machinery or explosives allowed 'cos its a purely residential area... one of the most expensive and exclusive in the country!!

I have seen this going on for more than a year and half now... its still a work in progress... all this for less than $5 a day!
not a happy thing... with more than 300 million people living on less than $1 a day, somethings better than nothing!

here's another pic in a different tone - want to bring out the depressing nature and the pain and blood in all this...

sorry if I went a lil overboard with my emotions...

I like the blue tones image a little better!

I feel for the Indian work force...and people in the US think they have it tough.

The ship breaking yards are insane too, I couldn't imagine...

Fantastic shot, thanks for sharing!
