Habitat for Humanity

The end of May, I signed up to donate my time photographing a Habitat for Humanity construction site at Rainier Vista in Seattle.  I had no preconceptions about what it would be like, but I came out feeling like I drank the H4H punch.  It was a great experience!  Everyone was there with good intentions which created a great vibe at the site.  I will definitely sign up for a few days of construction work when my schedule allows. 

It turned out that I was focusing on the people at work rather than the objects at the site, the good energy of the people had me focusing on them.  I never photographed people working, my only experience has been taking pictures of people at parties but I found myself spending four hours photographing people.  Like all photograph enthusiasts, I feel like I could've taken better pictures had I had a nice portraight lens.  But I think I took some nice pictures with my standard 18-135mm canon lens.

All the other pictures have been handed over to Habitat for their use.  Here is photo #66:
