Power to the moon - you can't see the cable in the distance but this is part of the route for electricity that keeps it shining - obviously on short supply this evening as lights were only on that wee crescent segment there #Moon #Scotland

All kicked off today @ King's Theatre dress rehearsal when one of the photographers burst the clowns massive Earth balloon - those clowns go crazy when angry - no photographer fessed up but I have my suspicions. Go see this show. It's brilliant. #EdinburghFestival

The moon last night over the Bronze Age burial cairn that sits atop West Cairn Hill in the Pentlands. I don't normally shoot the moon unless it's full or a crescent but I had to stop for this one. @astroroyalscot.bsky.social can you tell me about the dent top R in the moon?

Dress rehearsal of Dan Daw's EXXY - part of Edinburgh International Festival at King's Theatre - amazingly powerful visceral work felt more like the 4 on stage were tapping into deep wells of emotion & gushing forth - revealing themselves rather than performing - so much raw f'n energy

Our King's Theatre re-opened after a 4 year refurb & they celebrated with a mahoosive projection on the facade & a one-off performance led by Nicola Benedetti & featuring these three panto stalwarts - a bit scary seeing their coupons so big tbh

Excited to be working on a commission with Inch Cape Wind Farm to create a set of legacy images to adorn the walls of their Montrose operations base - capturing beautiful visual reminders of Scotland’s ongoing energy transition. Last night's sunset was a wee bit delicious. #Renewables
great big sun setting behind wind farm components which look a bit like a space rocket waiting for lift off at Cape Canaveral - there are cranes and buildings silhouetted at Leith Docks, sea in the foreground and hills in the background

Most folk know the daily footsteps Edinburgh's Calton Hill experiences but d'you realise how dry it is with so little rain - parched & very worn grass. From a mile away I caught dust swirling around the National Monument & a low sun casting shadows for a surreal vision #Edinburgh
