Study: Tower Build, Kigali, Rwanda

I post this more as a photographic or cinematographic study than anything. One of the things on my shot list at a festival is to film the pre-event construction. I was drawn to the geometric lines, the huge cumulus in the background, the dark silhouettes deftly working at a steady pace. And then, enjoying the sunset!

This reminds me of an open street fair in the Netherlands.  It was a festival day of some sort and they were doing these crazy pole buildings in the middle of the market.  I don’t recall having my camera with me, being on the bike as I was shopping that day.  I just remember very tall poles and people climbing them as they built with them.

Great images!  It’s beautiful to see people doing tricky things well.  Sights like this make me less grateful for OSHA than perhaps I should be.
