 Is that construction or destruction ??
 
 I must say I think construction is an excellent choice for a challenge and we should see some very creative and interesting images, good luck everyone.

		| | I'm currently living in the middle of a construction zone (new subdivision), however most of it is just a big mess.  The challenge, to make it look pretty.  Lots of options.

		| | lol I guess its a new thing called destruction construction.  The house is now selling for $450K CAN. without the damage.

 but the key is trying to do it creatively without making it look like a snap shot.

		| | They're building a house (from scratch) right behind ours and it's easily accessible and I have a pretty good view of the place out of my bedroom window... 
 Handy challenge, this hehe.

		| | Reminds me of one of my first shots here, for the Beginnings challenge 
 
   
 Having looked at the decisions pictures, I could have entered the same into that and called it "decision to build a building".
 
 Lots more cranes around London at the moment - will have to look for some interesting shots.  Oh - and demolition if existing structures is part of the construction process, but perhaps not the most likely to score well (if it is obviously demolition, not construction).

 Maybe, maybe not, but people with 'opinions' for sure, they will be there.

		| | Hmm ... I hope I can find some construction here in NYC ... |

		| | In Canada there should be no problem.  We only have two seasons, Winter and construction.  Nows the time all the roadwork gets started and doesn't stop until the first snow flies. |
