There’s no jobs , nothing to do, so why not enjoy some of the simple pleasures in life. The govenment say they will shorten the dole queues….. I can only imagine they are going to get people to stand closer together.

The honeybee teaches about community and harmony. One lesson we can take from this is that the well-being of any community is dependent on the health and contribution of each of its members. One member cannot take on all the responsibilities, nor can one sit back and reap all the benefits without harming the community in a negative way. Another lesson is that sometimes one can work too hard, ignoring the others in the community who can contribute, risking their health from stress and depleted health. Think of the classic workaholic. Being part of a community means knowing you cannot do it all, and asking for help when it is needed. It also means to step up and help out those who need it. We can also learn from the honeybee about conserving and preparing for the future. By balancing working roles, the hive (the community) can run efficiently and create a harmonious living environment. To the Ancient Egyptians, honeybees were believed to be the tears of the sun god Ra and honey was believed to be a symbol of resurrection and protected against evil spirits. In Ancient Greece the honeybee was thought to be messengers for the gods. The Priestesses of the Oracle in Delphi were sought to answer questions about the future and past. The Priestesses sat on three-legged stools near a spot where sweet-smelling fumes rose up through an omphalos stone, which was hollow and shaped similar to a bee hive. The exterior of the omphalos stone was carved with the images of honeybees. The Honeybee was sacred to the Celtic goddess Brigid, who kept an orchard in the Otherworld, which was visited by bees.

I photographed this man whilst he was hard at work in a small field: it’s hot and humid, and this man uses all his might and strength to plow into the hardened clay-like ground in the hope of giving an opportunity for plants to breathe a little easier. And to take a breather, he stopped momentarily and looked up at me, and that is when my finger made contact with the shutter button.

Lifeguards – South Cronulla Beach, Sydney, Australia. After a long day keeping the beach safe, these lifeguards take a well earned break. This image grabbed me as I was walking along to do the Esplanade walk in South Cronulla. Lifegaurds are such an iconic part of Australian life and the sight of this lot having a break, some catching a few zzz’s in the afternoon light, some having a laugh and a few still keeping an eye on the surf, meant I had to take a shot. The HDR part came about as I took the shot quickly and only had a single Jpeg. Given the light and textured concrete and wall, I wanted to capture all that and so decided to see how sucessful HDR would be from a single Jpeg. Nikon D90, Nikkor VR 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 @ f6.3, 32mm, 1/160 sec, ISO 200, hand held, HDR’d in Photomatix from a single Jpeg exposed 5x at 1 EV intervals, iPhoto.
