It was 100°F on this day, and must have been a little uncomfortable for the mules and the workers. You can see the boat and it's tight squeeze going through the lock. The woman is standing on top of the boat in this picture.

Jimbob - Triple digit temperatures and dressed in warm period costumes - the workers must have been very uncomfortable. I don't think the mules were too pleased either. I like the mood of this scene. You have captured the escape to the shade for the man and his mule, while the bright, hazy, hot sunshine surrounds. Of course, the woman keeps on working, in spite of the heat! As always, an excellent composition. Thad

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine
A fine shot here again Jim. Time for a rest on a hot day. They needed a lemonade stand!

This is a very well composed shot of this scene. Love all the tree's, and I expect they did too to keep abit cooler. Well done!

In life as in dance: grace glides on blistered feet.
Very nice and showing the respite gives the viewer perspective.

The shade was sure inviting to the man and the mules JimboB. You can see that in the photo. Maybe you should have let him rest and taken a turn at mule leading. You can lead a mule to water, but a pencil has to be lead. :)
Wonderful composition.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.
I sure wish we could combine our weather. We've been in the high 60s to low 70s. I'm ready for nice warm weather. This place looks to enchanting. I love the cobblestone streets, and the cart pulled by mules is a fabulous addition to the scene. Great shot.

In my country we are used to express the temperatures in °C (Celsius). So I had to do a small conversion. 100°F stands for 37.7°C. Too hot to do any work, but a good temperature to enjoy a cold glass of good beer. Wish I could offer you one or more Jimbob, because you deserve this. Capturing photographs in such a temperature to enjoy us, is worth such a gesture. Take a couple of them and send the bill to me, lol.
Thanks mate, for contuniation this wonderful series this way.

You only live once. OR MAYBE NOT!
Got to feel for the poor mule and the old man. At least she got to ride. LOL. Another great capture in the series.

Hey, Jimbob...
I was afraid I'd never see Frank and Helga again. They're like old friends after watching their labors for more than a week now. Very nice posting, Jim. The shot is well balanced and has some nice spring/summer colors in evidence.

Another great addition to this excellent series, Jimbo. When it's that hot down here I grab a cold one and head for the pool.

I’m having amnesia and deja vu at the same time - I think I’ve forgotten this before.
Looks like they really need the rest. Great job capturing this moment.

Some people have Gurus, I have my camera. Through the cam lenses I have learnt to deeply perceive life, not only to see, but to look at all expressions of nature, becoming able to read the poetry of the flowers, receiving the embrace of the trees and flying above the clouds without wings! - Susie Sun
It's good to see they are staying under the tree in the shadows, this is a really super capture Jimbob.

That is pretty dang hot...especially when wearing clothes of the time. Looks like he is enjoying that spot of shade as are his mules.

Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain
I'd be taking a rest also & it was probably close to 100 degrees in the shade as well. Wonderful capture, Jim.
