| A view of two city park workers sitting in truck with a flat tire near the GW University in Washington, DC. This photograph captured in September, 1999 was taken by Jim Epler in the summer in Washington, DC on a side street near GW University. It is cataloged under the terms people, cities, transportation and urban scenes in this photography database. The image was exposed on 35mm Kodak Tri-X 400 black & white film stock using a Pentax Asahi Spotmatic II camera with a Asahi Pentax 55mm f/1.8 lens. Photographer Comments: I was a little wary when taking this photograph because I thought the two guys in the truck were going to get out and pound me for taking a picture of them sitting in the truck's cab with a flat tire. In reality, I think they were nervous because they might have thought I was a Washington Post newspaper reporter snapping a photograph of them in an embarrassing situation. I think it's funny that they're sitting in the cab rather than trying to fix the tire. It's probably a government requirement that repair personnel are the only ones who are allowed to fix a tire or some type of union stipulation that prevents these workers from making an effort. Silly. |

Additionally, Jim thought of search words that someone might use to locate this picture including the terms State Department, close enough for government work, F street, government, 21st street, flat tire, government workers, Virginia Avenue, city workers, GW University, E Street, government work and Constitution Avenue, so he included these on this page as a service to himself and others who would like to download this free photograph! |
