• Big place, small guy! I would love to get into such a place i just love abandoned places, there is so much to photograph!
  Claus @ 2008-07-13 00:50:59
• there is a great sense of formal grace to this shot, also a complex statement coming through. Is this guy stuck in a dead-end job here forever?
  rhys @ 2008-07-13 01:15:17
• Great social commentary. I love the perfect simplicity and the colors in the image. He looks so small in the face of such enormity.

• Scott, definitely your vault is full of surprises, this is excellent capture. Anna :)
  Anna @ 2008-07-15 14:14:47
• Judging by his posture, he seems almost as 'broken down' as the building. The colors are great but somehow the overall affect for me is sadness :(
  
  It's been a long time - and still LOVE your format in addition to the photos. Hope all is well with you and you and family are enjoying the summer.
