Aircraft Structural Technician.
This was the first time I used the self-timer and I had trouble with the focus and lighting. Probably shot about 100.

One of the many people I admire, "Rosie the Riveter" came to epitomize the women who manufactured the materials and supplies critical to the Allied victory of WWII...That's what it says on my T-Shirt.

Thanks for the comments and votes. They are appreciated.
Jillz - this is what is called bench work. Actually, it's not really machinery. Just a pneumatic rivet gun and bucking bar. The piece being worked on is in a vise that is attached to my toolbox. Most of the time the work is done directly on the aircraft.
Also, I did try this in B&W as was suggested and it looked pretty good. Thanks for the suggestion.

I like how you chose to not show the entire worker....makes the shot more interesting I think

Nice exposure, good color saturation, and overall nicely done.

I've never seen a riveter before. It's neat to see how it's done. I would have liked to see more of the person doing the riveting and more of the machine itself.

It shows what he's doing, and it meets the challenge because of it. Good shot.

Nicely detailed pic with good exposure, but a bit busy.

The signs in the back take away attention from the main subject and maybe B & W would have worked better. 3
