Concrete Action

Concrete in wheelbarrows is past its sell-by-date - cranes took over a long time ago.

And it's hot stuff too!

Have a nice Week-End!

Sylvia K said...: Amazing the changes that we all see around us these days! What great reflections! I surely would hate to have that tip over when I was walking by/under!! It does look hot with the smoke curling uu!! Hope you have a great weekend, Rune!; 21:37
Dina said...: Great pictures that show how scary it is to be under one of those.; 21:39

Gerald (Hyde DP) said...: I've replied to your comment on HDP with a link to a video of a 1947 short film that includes shots of a steam train on the old line.; 22:44
Banjo52 said...: How things work--more and more that issue interests me. How was that decision about concrete made? With all the heavy machinery involved, I'm sure it's a long-term change.; 01:16
Jackie said...: It is always amazing to me how things get built.
Great photos! Love the blue sky!!
Hugs,

Malyss said...: The kind of thing I'd never think to picture! Bt i'm wrong, because it gives very interesting and strong photos!

HansHB said...: Flott tittel til denne herlige bildeserien!!

Ha en super kveld!; 17:27
Wayne (Woody), whatever said...: Most people do not think about concrete getting hot. I like the steam rising.; 19:28
Viola said...: Tror faktisk jeg ikke ville gått under den gitt.. redd for å ha fått den i hue, hehe.. for den der virka veldig veldig tung ja!

men nå kom grand prix.. back to tv, (og jeg som til tider hater tv)
:))

Irene said...: Tøffe bilder ... ser ikke helt trygt ut, men jeg regner med at HMS'en er på plass :)

God ny uke!; 17:39
E Squared and Mui said...: Better not stand under it; a concrete bath is not how you want to start the day ;-)
Erin from Two to Travel's Viewfinder; 21:09
Barbara Martin said...: Times change but concrete is still poured to put up buildings.; 23:36
Lew said...: Love your blue sky! When I was working closer to Washington, DC, I saw a lot of those buckets as the area was filled with high buildings. Here in Frederick, I see more of the trucks with a big hose and pump on the back to get the concrete poured. No more wheelbarrows here.; 06:59
Petra said...: We still use a wheelbarrow for transporting concrete in our garden but well, it's not representative industry use. :)

I like the technical symmetry of the first photo... :); 16:07
Anne said...: Jøjje min håper du sto et godt stykke unna Rune!!!; 07:10

Barefoot from Heaven said...: Really? concreet hot? Never new that. I thought it's just the dust swirling when the crane moved the basket. uh...another lesson learned.

Irén T. A. Færevaag said...: Tøffe motiv! Ekstra stilig det siste med "rykende" tønne :-D; 23:01
Bjarte Wergedahl said...: Ja, det bygges "overalt". Stilig med kontrasten mot himmelen og røyken fra beholderen.; 20:22
