Wednesday Caption

Here's one of our old favourites. This was taken in the early days of Bright Beehive as a company and by Nick as a beekeeper.

This is one of the thousands of bees that Nick has. What you are not able to see here is the nervousness I had when dealing with these wondrous beasts. I had a fear of bees which has largely subsided over the past couple of years. 

I particularly love this photo. (Shame I didn't shave that day.)

Special thanks to Andy and Peter for last week's entries.

Wednesday Caption

We got a great response last week from our Wednesday Caption, mostly from Colin in Shepherd's Rest Pub in Draperstown, Northern Ireland.  My favourite of his was "family crossed the road to take a photo."

I felt as though I had to be topical this week with the senseless looting happening across England right now but I thought I'd focus on the more positive side of what has come out of all of this e.g. with people using social media to come together for the good of the community.

@riotcleanup was set up on Twitter and has attracted over 87k followers in just over 24 hours. In this short space of time the account is responsible for having brought together cleaning teams all across London and now across other parts of the UK affected by the rioting.

So please give me your captions below. And if you have any images of the culprits be sure to report them. (Read this for more on that.)

Footnote: I have just written up this blog post Social Media: Good Or Evil? The Other Side Of The UK Riots which may be of interest.
