•  Support A great series --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 08:21, 28 July 2018 (UTC)
•  Support It's good that the people appear with a certain sharpness.--Peulle (talk) 11:03, 28 July 2018 (UTC)
•  Oppose as a set. I'm not sure this fulfils the requirements of a FP set. We currently lack a concept of a series or story for a group of pictures, where they have merit as a group, but not necessarily all FP in their own right. Perhaps that's something to consider. Here I think only the middle is an FP, with strong interaction between the workers. In the first, it is unclear what the guys are doing, and one of them is just standing vacantly. They are also tiny in the frame. In the last, the top worker is also in an unclear and awkward pose, which spoils things. I think that when photographing workers, the thing that takes it to FP is capturing the right moment, when the body, hands, eye-line, position are all working positively to create a great moment. And a pair/group of people working together, need to be seen to be working together. The first and last photos don't have that. -- Colin (talk) 11:58, 28 July 2018 (UTC)
•  Oppose as a set per Colin. Though I would actually support the first photo simply as a landscape. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 15:05, 28 July 2018 (UTC)
•  Comment I will support only first photo as FP candidate -- George Chernilevsky ^talk 18:29, 28 July 2018 (UTC)
•  Support, pace Colin et al. I recognize the work being done and don't see anyone standing vacantly. In the first one, correct me if I'm wrong, but what I see is that the man on the bridge is holding a big stick while looking at the man below, and both of them are moving it into position. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:34, 29 July 2018 (UTC)

• My interpretation too -- Basile Morin (talk) 07:20, 29 July 2018 (UTC)

•  Support -- Johann Jaritz (talk) 02:20, 29 July 2018 (UTC)
•  Oppose Per Colin. --Karelj (talk) 07:45, 29 July 2018 (UTC)
•  Oppose per Colin and King. Daniel Case (talk) 16:21, 29 July 2018 (UTC)

•  I withdraw my nomination and may renominate each of them separately. As I read each comment, the first picture seems to gather 7 supports out of 9 votes, the second picture 8/9, and the third one only 5/9. Because I've got alternatives for this last shot, hopefully all of them (or similar) have a chance to succeed here. Thanks for the reviews -- Basile Morin (talk) 22:22, 29 July 2018 (UTC)
