I spent a couple of years after college swinging a hammer and still remember the satisfaction. I can't ever seem to get away during the week so at the moment I have to satisfy myself with photographing the ghosts of the stories that played out in the hours or days before. Still, the idle gear and piles of used and unused materials have a story of their own if you just ask. Several years ago I remember walking by a construction site around lunch time. Passing by on the sidewalk were two extremely attractive. If I'd had a camera with me, the picture I would have taken would have been the fellows on the site above and the chaps in the suits below all slack jawed at the sight of these two lovely gals. A wonderful juxtaposition and a fine insight into the male condition. Cheers Kevin Hoffberg
