Description
This photo is dedicated to the hardworking labour workers.

Their lives are simple, much simpler than most of us, but I believe they enjoy what they are doing, and feel happy for it. The house in the photo is a modified container used for temporary stay on the site.

So, when I looked at the finally result of the photo, it made me think and relate it to the workers' lives, just like what's in the photo, simplicity, and colorfulness. The container somehow makes me think of 'life' as it's a sort of accommodation.

The workers are not seen as the so called 'minds' of the society, they are not given ANY credit for building or doing what ever they do, personally I think, for example, we usually will credit the architect for designing and building something, but the workers who actually build it physically are often just seen as the worker ants, they build and they die, no one cares, not even themselves.

I feel that besides whoever design or organise and carry out a project, the labours should be given some credit for their physical contribution, too.

---------------------

This photo is shot in IR, therefore it's not very sharp, partly to due to long exposure as well.

Location : Bedok Reservoir Singapore

Nikon D200 + Nikkor 18-200mm + Hoya R72

Enjoy, and thank you for you attention.
