An away game.

"Do you know how few people come up here?" He asked as we sardined into the skeleton lift barely ample for one of us. "We've had to knock back so many requests to come up here, even some from the big bosses." I was glad he said that because now the opportunity to work 120 metres above the ground on top of a modern wind turbine felt even more special. We waited in the head of the turbine as the lift descended for the other two. There are so many new things to see in a new environment, buttons, bolts and dials, the smell of expensive machinery and machine lubricant so there was much to talk about whilst we waited.

Outside, on the top of the turbine was mind lightening and breathtaking on such a bright and still day.

Being on site was only a part of this assignment. I also shot some portraits in a makeshift office studio. I love how everybody owned their session, especially the fella shown below. I can easily see him in a Vanity Fair feature about the wind industry’s movers and shakers.
