I've been watching this renovation of plazas in Evanston all year--a fountain was removed--and this sign is fairly new. I like I got the worker in the photo too...
Czekamy na ciepłe pory roku i widoki pilnych pracowników w ogrodach. /
We look forward to the warm seasons and views urgent workers in the gardens.
This image was captured on Wall st on a busy lunch hour.
I noticed people sitting on the steps to soak up some of the precious autumn sun.
Picture taken as part of my serie about the manual workers in Philippines.
Rowel, construction worker.
We met Rowel (50 yo) in Dauin in the construction site of the resort of a good friend. Him and his workmates accepted to be taken in picture.
We will go back next month to meet them again for the construction of bamboo bungallow. :)
The resort name is "la tortue, Diving center" and promises to be extremely nice specially for the divers in the Negros. :)
Dauin, Negros Oriental, Philippines.

Title
Migratory worker in auto camp. Single man, speaks his mind. "Them WPAs are keeping us from a living. They oughtn't to do it. It ain't fair in no way. The government lays them off (that is in Work Projects Administration - 1939) and they come in because they're locals and take the jobs away from us that never had no forty-four dollars a month. I came out of Pennsylvania, used to be an oil worker. I'm getting along in years now and I seen lots of presidents and lots of systems. Voted for Roosevelt both times and I don't know of any president that ever leaned toward the laboring man like him, but this system they've got here in the fruit is a rotten system the way they work it."

I've always found ants fascinating, this is one of my best shots of a live ant.
I find them really challenging to photograph!
Ant Facts
There are more than 12,000 species of ants all over the world.
An ant can lift 20 times its own body weight. If a second grader was as strong as an ant, she would be able to pick up a car!
Some queen ants can live for many years and have millions of babies!
Ants don’t have ears. Ants "hear" by feeling vibrations in the ground through their feet.
When ants fight, it is usually to the death!
When foraging, ants leave a pheromone trail so that they know where they’ve been.
Queen ants have wings, which they shed when they start a new nest.
Ants don’t have lungs. Oxygen enters through tiny holes all over the body and carbon dioxide leaves through the same holes.
When the queen of the colony dies, the colony can only survive a few months.
Queens are rarely replaced and the workers are not able to reproduce.
Although ants are frustrating when they get into your home or when you’re having a picnic, ants do help the environment. They are social insects, which means they live in large colonies or groups. Depending on the species, ant colonies can consist of millions of ants.
There are three kinds of ants in a colony: The queen, the female workers, and males. The queen and the males have wings, while the workers don’t have wings. The queen is the only ant that can lay eggs. The male ant’s job is to mate with future queen ants and they do not live very long afterwards.
Once the queen grows to adulthood, she spends the rest of her life laying eggs! Depending on the species, a colony may have one queen or many queens.
Ant colonies also have soldier ants that protect the queen, defend the colony, gather or kill food, and attack enemy colonies in search for food and nesting space.
If they defeat another ant colony, they take away eggs of the defeated ant colony. When the eggs hatch, the new ants become the "slave" ants for the colony.
Some jobs of the colony include taking care of the eggs and babies, gathering food for the colony and building the anthills or mounds.
