(de)Constructing the University of Leeds

I caught this image by chance while outside the Student Union at the University of Leeds last week. I wish I could say I managed to choreograph the construction workers into this position for the purpose of the aesthetics of my photo, but they were already situated thus because they were passing metal poles up to each other.

I did, however, ask them if I could take a photo and they all stopped and 'posed' momentarily. Unfortunately, I couldn't get the man on the ground in the shot at all, and also chopped the man at the top's head off. The image reminds me of the ITV ident Snakes and Ladders
