I took this photo of industry across Botany Bay near Sydney’s airport:
This is how a bee gets industrious:
How have you been industrious this month?
Note: For the month of April during the A-Z Challenge I am pausing from my usual blogging theme of writing and social media tips. Instead I hope to share with you my photography. Much of it is inspired by the fabulous and helpful site, The Bookshelf Muse. Please check it out and enjoy.

I think I have been pretty industrious so far this month! I have certainly got a lot of editing work done!
ReplyDeleteIndustrious is a lovely word- busy and purposeful, I think I am in that zone most of the time!
ReplyDeleteOh! who me? Industrious? I don't think so! Just read about a zillion books and wrote reviews!
ReplyDeleteI'm always industrious. A busy little bee in fact, lol.
ReplyDeleteDenise
It's the Easter holidays so I'm taking break from being industrious for a day or two! :-)
ReplyDeleteThe bees' industry puts me to shame!
Take care

I feel like a busy bee! March and April have been busy months.
ReplyDeleteHave I been industrious? Hope blogging counts!
ReplyDeleteI see those dock cranes are rather universal throughout the world.
Well, if doing the challenge counts, then yes, I've been very industrious!
ReplyDeleteI enjoy photography too. Hope to do more with it in the future, especially once I get a decent digital camera. I like your photos.
ReplyDeleteI think I've been industrious. A-Z is very challenging.
ReplyDeleteIngenious how you wrote a great post with so few words!So far in April, I've added 8000 new words to my WIP. I think I need a break today, but I need to keep writing.
ReplyDeletewell, I've finally finished translating ERAGON, that is industrious enough for me :)
ReplyDeleteDid you enjoy the story?
Deletelooks like a busy bee!!
ReplyDeleteI started a new YA, when I swore I wouldn't. But this story's really got my attention, which is a good thing. More than I can say for what I was working on before.
ReplyDeleteYep sometimes pausing or even stopping a manuscript is a good thing. New projects have a way of recharging the creativity.
DeleteExcellent photos. I've been rehearsing and now performing my play "Coffee Shop Confessions." It's a blast!

Your photography shows a wonderful artistic eye. Industrious? Hmmm, that's all relative. Can we define parking my arse in my office chair and working on the computer most of the day "industrious?" If so, I'm EXTREMELY industrious. Thanks for visiting my blog and for signing on as a new follower. I do appreciate it, and am happy to return the favor. (Not often I get the chance to push someone so close to a magical 1000 followers!)
ReplyDeleteWelcome!!
DeleteAnd yes...sooooo close! ;)
Hey Lynzeroonie, I see you're two followers away from an even grand. ;)
ReplyDeletetastes like... chocolate!!!
DeleteLove the 2 versions of industry/industrious. :) I've finished my WIP!--that's industrious. Now to turn my attention to all the things I've been neglecting meanwhile...
ReplyDeletewoo hoo! Congratulations!!
DeleteI think all of us in the A-Z challenge have been pretty industrious...
ReplyDeleteI haven't been as industrious as I wanted. Most of my hard-working energy is going toward creating a baby and getting over being sick, lol. Still, I've managed to get a fair amount done. :)
ReplyDeleteI actually thought that first picture was a fairground at first :-)
ReplyDeleteHmm .... industrious? Well, I've met a lot of new people and typed a lot of comments !
I've definitely tried to be industrious, writing at least 1,000 words a day. Whew, it can be tiring at times though:)
ReplyDeleteI have NOT been industrious lately. Haven't written in weeks...other than blog posts. Now that I'm home again, I've got to get back on schedule.
ReplyDeletehah, I'm trying to be industrious this month! great I word!
ReplyDeleteIndustrious - this A-Z Challenge and novel work. Whew, I'm tired! :)
ReplyDeleteThe Bookshelf Muse also does photography??? I love their thesaurus entries for emotions and settings and other writerly helps.
ReplyDeleteThe Bookshelf Muse doesn't do photograhy, but they have inspired me with my own photos so I wanted to give them a proper shout out.
DeleteGreat photos! I think all of us doing the A-Z qualify as industrious this month! :)
ReplyDeleteYes, have. Preparing to plant (is that tilling?) Planted snow peas, pickling cucunbers, bell peppers and a lovely basil plant, And Coriander.
ReplyDeleteFixing to plant tomatoes but all the ol' locals say wait till May or at least after Easter, 'specially with a blackberry winter, which means - if blackberry plants are flowering, then it is not "safe" to plant until May for fear of frost. Those blackberry plants are thorny pests, ut so too are my raspberry plants.
So I guess am industrious.
wow, sounds like you know your gardening!
DeleteI totally live there! Well, not in Botany but across the water in the St George area, but I totally know where that is! * feels proud*
ReplyDeleteI haven't been industrious this month but I hope to change that very soon.
Have a great month!
Ha, we are close then. I live in the Shire.
DeleteYes. But as a result, I'm behind on visiting blogs. :) Blame the WIP. ;)
ReplyDeleteThe bee looks like he means business. Great photos.

ReplyDeleteThis challenge has been a pretty industrious feat! Coming up with a poem a day from A-Z keeps me on my toes!

Great photo!
Whoa! What another fantastic creative outlet you have, Lynda! :D
ReplyDeleteFabulous photos for industrious. I prefer the bee, but that's just my bias. And yes, I have been industrious this past month. Phew!
ReplyDeleteSitting at Seaworld today catching up on blogs while kids go on rides - multitasking is how I'm industrious this week.
ReplyDeleteGreat examples. Yes, I've been industrious like crazy!
ReplyDeleteIsn't the Bookshelf Muse always good? Love the lessons on covers.

ReplyDeleteLove the bee picture, Lyn. Its amazing :) I am trying to be industrious like the bee.
ReplyDeleteI think so. I've been doing a decent amount of writing this month.
ReplyDeleteJust the A to Z challenge, and my 12x12 in 2012 keeps me busy!
ReplyDeleteI'm doing my best, but only being able to use my work's computer for half an hour a day for the next 3 months to blog makes it difficult. I do what I can though
