Well I will take a guess and say he is removing a bird nest from a cell tower. That's kind of a goofy guess but he sure doen't look like he is dressed for doing a job up there. Great photo!!! Thanks for sharing.

Apparently he is checking some numbers with his list...
Intriguing!

Ian's got a really good eye. Looks like he's trapped up there, although I know he isn't. What's he doing? I don't know--meter reader?

Whatever he's doing, it looks precarious!

I suppose he's doing something to do with wiring. Ian does have a good eye.

Very intriguing picture. No clue to what he is up to but it looks very scary.

Unusual SWF image - and a good one!
So what is that man doing?
«Louis'» acrophobia kicks in just viewing the image!

Unique entry for Skywatch Friday. Last thing I expected to see. I'd take a picture of the sky and post it but it's been gray forever. Not very picturesque! ~karen

I don't know, but I'm glad it's him and not me!

Have you ever been to a lineman rodeo? They're pretty cool. I don't think this guy is a lineman though. I've never seen scaffolding like that.

I wonder waht he was doing? Did you find out? Is that a crane? So many questions about your photo Lily! Good shot!

I'll guess that he was ensuring that you and my mom and other good LIers get to have electricity. I echo what others here have said about Ian's excellent eye!

Looks dangerous, I wonder how you get into that line of work?

and the answer is...
this man is changing the letters on the sign for the movie theatre!
I think everyone was thrown off by the electrical wires right next to him. Also, he looks higher up than he actually is because of the way the shot is cropped.
Interesting, isn't it?
thanks for all of your good guesses! I find you all have wonderful imaginations.

Now that's an odd shot! Great timing on your part! Thanks for dropping in at my SWF post. Enjoy the day.
