Thank you for your comments. Well, I do like the shot for it's multitude of lines running horizontally and vertically, for the stages and the light/shadows on the elements. The ladders add some points of interest and a scale. The shot definitely works better in a decent size. And the title was a reference to the old Donkey Kong game (http://www.empire-of-the-claw.com/files/Donkey%20Kong_640.jpg)... although I now think I should have left that shot without a title...

Thanks all!

@GMACK24: it's a real tunnel construction site, one of the trench borders, seen from the opposite site. Approx. 30m high/deep, and from 60m away.

The title makes this shot, as do alot of your titles. Nice work!

Well... I am very torn when it comes to using titles. Often they take away some freedom of unbiased interpretation...

Nice shot habakuk! I think you should have had someone roll some barrels to get that real Donkey Kong effect! Hehe!:)

LOL. Well, it's from a construction site, so with a little patience, that might be possible to see... :)
