Photographer's Note
These acrobatic men are preparing a scaffolding eith long sticks of bamboo. The building is Ruvanvelisaya Dagoba in Anuradhapura. Originally built by King Dutugemenu140 B.C. it became a ruin and was renovated in early 20th century. It is now 103m tall. And these workers are working at a height of about 80-90 metres. I put a picture in the WS with a lesser zoom.

Hello Roland, Such a picture couldn't be made in Western countries. Where are safety restrictions? It seems they are not protected. And it is 80-90 metres? Incredible. They have no vertigo, for sure. Stunning photo.
Thanks for the critique of my picture of the Lhasa mosque. I have noticed earlier that you can read Arabic. You must be especially interesting in Arabic culture, also your nick proves it.
Kind regards Malgo
