entry description
This image was made during a sheet lightning storm on 3 April 2016. I was drawn to the line of the working boats in the foreground, their shapes and textures seemed to be similar to those of the vast, looming city in the background. On the pontoon in the very foreground a sign reads, Please slow down, Men At Work', a theme which seemed to fit in with the developed city behind. The boats themselves seem bright under the gloomy skies and they lead the eye through this composition, past the bridge and the city up into the dramatic storm-laden sky.
