Great interpretation of working outdoors. We often take for granted how difficult it is to work in some occupations. I am glad you are enjoying my website. I try to include factoids and odd bits of information when I can. I have added myself as a follower of your site so I can continue you to see your great photos. I look forward to more.

Beau, amusant et instructif. Exceptionnel, comme toujours...!

Ha-ha-ha. Tres amusant. I bet the first guy is frozen inside the armor :)

LOL! Tous les deux ont l'air gelés !

Olivier March 5, 2009 at 2:29 AM  

bien trouvé la comparaison ;o)) je préfère quand même la deuxième version ;o)

lyliane six March 5, 2009 at 2:38 AM  

La deuxième version est quand même un peu moins "froide"!

une analogie réussie!!!
wouah ça c'est du super cogité tu as fait poser le deuxième après avoir vu le premier?(ou l'inverse, hi!)

Je ne sais pas si la ferraille isole du froid. Mais c'est un arnachement pas pratique quand tu as envie de faire pipi.
La chasseur a l'air bien couvert mais si j'étais lui j'aurais extrêmement froid à mes petits pieds. Et quand j'ai froid au pieds j'ai froid partout. Ce n'est pas un métier pour moi.

Wow ! On offre de superbes habits de fonction sur la 5th.
Bon, ce ne sont pas n'importe quelles entrées d'immeubles, non plus. On a les moyens ! Comment va Donald ?

Tu me fais sourire - et ce n'est pas un mal.

Ha, ha! The first fellow shouldn't go out often in the rain...

Le conseil en cas de panne : ne pas rester dans sa voiture où il fait plus froid que dehors. Ce n'est pas un igloo. Il fait froid ici aussi ce jour, parce que sans doute nous avons pris un avant gout de printemps et avons du mal à embrayer la marche arrière...

*lol* funny photos, but both are nothing for me to work in the garden. I think I will stay inside; it's rainy ...

This is such a cool and funny post! Very clever indeed!

Excellent! Ici aussi, le froid est revenu, accompagné d'un vent glacial et de rafales de pluie...
Je n'y avais pas prêté attention jusqu'à ta visite aujourd'hui, mais en arrière-plan de mes pêcheurs, c'est l'île d'Arz...

Yup, they are the modern day Knights. Think about it ... knights had armor .. policemen have bullet proof vests

Dawning Inspiration March 5, 2009 at 3:41 PM  

Oh My! Looks WAY too cold for me!

Anonymous March 5, 2009 at 6:11 PM  

This is very good! Made me laugh ~

Very clever choice of photos. The livery of doormen has definitely changed over the centuries. I vote for wool over chainmail, it has to be warmer.

PJ March 6, 2009 at 12:00 AM  

Amazingly, neither outfit looks very warm! Brrrr! Cold is cold.

I'll give a great tip for keeping your feets warm, M-N. I know it sounds crazy, but after you put your socks on, put plastic bread bags on your feet (without the bread in them). It will hold your body heat in while you're rambling around taking all of your amazing photos. The second guy, his feets are freezing, I guarantee it!

Sensible fashion and very smart and yes another fab photo.

Babzy.B March 6, 2009 at 5:12 AM  

très rigolo ;)

je leur propose de jouer au gendarme et au voleur pour se réchauffer
