What a funny title! The position of the man inside the frame really does well in making him very noticeable even in the distance. Nice job with that :)

    The title?? Well he was painting so if hedropped jia tool the guy at the top might have roped one down to him. I couldnt think of a suitabke catchy name. But thanks tjis was a very good review and much appreciated.

you are perfectly right to leave it like this and not to zoom on the worker; it is important to show how impressive it is ;
good focus and exposure for the white;

This is a great photo and a good entry for this contest! This actually gave me butterflies in my stomach because of the sense of height! Thank you for sharing and good luck in the contest!

nice idea to capture the man on the rope, but if he is the main subject of the photo - the contest is man at work - then he should be seen better, like this the viewer mainly sees the card and the busy street

thanks for sharing

    Yes I know what you are saying and mean and appreciate your comment. I made the decision not to zoom in so as to get the perspective from the larger street scene to the tiny image of the man working. Thanks for reviewing.always welcome critique.

Rather him than me! Seems like a very mad and unsafe way of painting the side of a building!! Your fine journalistic image benefits from having good composition with good exposure and sharpness. Well done and good luck!

Great perspective in this photo! His small size in the photo really gives a sense of how high up he is working. It's nice the way he is framed by the trees. Great entry for the contest! Best of luck!

A very nice image for this contest. The precarious nature of the work is enough to bring a lump to your throat. Very nice composition with great colors. Good luck in the voting.
