PESO - The Morning Workout
So yesterday, for some reason I thought it might be a quiet day at work, so I stowed the *istD and Vivitar f3.8 19mm in my messenger bag and headed off to work. About two weeks ago, Canada Post workers were in a legal strike position, and they've been running rotating strikes throughout the country since then. As of yesterday, Canada Post Corporation locked out the workers nation-wide, shutting down the service completely. Of course, we same-day courier companies went nuts.

Re: PESO - The Morning Workout
I like that image Frank, and it works well in BW. Your vantage point emphasizes the isolation -- and perhaps loneliness -- of the sculler. The size of the distant skyline also emphasizes the isolation, and gives a nice feeling of the place. Being busy can be hard of the nerves, but it is usually better than the alternative.
