Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 27/09/2025Day 270/365 #photooftheday Can’t run parkrun at the moment, so I volunteered. Turns out the front runners look like this. #parkrun 0110

Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 11/09/2025Day 254/365 #photooftheday An afternoon and evening of making portraits — some old friends, some new faces. 030

Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 23/08/2025Day 218/365 #photooftheday My 350th parkrun, celebrated with friends. Time to bow out of limping round the course and switch to volunteering—until the day comes when a new knee might let me run again. #parkrun 0110
Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 16/08/2025Day 210/365 #photooftheday I saw a sad thing. 030
Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 15/08/2025Day 209/365 #photooftheday After yesterday’s photograph of me at my kitchen table a year ago, here it is today—full of glorious summerness. 020
Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 14/08/2025Day 208/365 #photooftheday A year ago today Jude took my portrait at the kitchen table. Today she got the photographs developed. 070

Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 11/08/2025Day 205/365 #photooftheday It’s been a day—but I’ve finally reached the part where I can relax, and this outdoor spot looks like just the place to kick back. 040

Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 06/08/2025Day 218/365 #photooftheday On the way to a poetry evening I see the abandon chairs of a student house with its empty summer windows. The absence of presence. 000

Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 23/07/2025Day 204/365 #photooftheday Working from home means more time with Rigby—though he’s not entirely convinced. There are walks to take, sticks to chase, balls to fetch… and absolutely no good reason to be indoors. 020
Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 22/07/2025Day 203/365 #photoaday Held my camera up for 119 minutes. Worth all the seconds. #euros 020

Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 19/07/2025Day 200/365 #photoaday Kicked off the weekend with Pride parkrun—or parkwalk for me and barkrun for Rigby. Here we are at the finish line, posing for the camera while Rigby takes a small rest. #parkrun 0170
Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 17/07/2025Day 198/365 #photoaday This is Cheetah—the studio dog where I’ve been making portraits in London for an exhibition. I also met my Finlay after work for his birthday, but drinks pics can’t compete with a cute dog on a chair. 020
Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 16/07/2025Day 197/365 #photoaday Front seat. Top deck. London bus. Best seat in the city. 020
Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 14/07/2025Day 195/365 #photoaday Happy birthday Jude! 000
Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 11/07/2025Day 192/365 #photoaday Living near water is a gift for dogs on days like these. Earlyish morning, we’re down there, and just before a hot dog makes a splash, I catch the stillness and colour of the day ahead. I love summer and the gentleness of the shade. 010
Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 10/07/2025Day 191/365 #photoaday Man alive, number 5. 020
Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 09/07/2025Day 190/365 #photoaday “I don’t know why I’m smiling behind here!” My lovely neighbour, framed behind her fabulous portrait. 000

Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 07/07/2025Day 188/365 #photoaday Night. Light. 000
Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 06/07/2025Day 187/365 #photoaday It’s all been happening this weekend, yesterday the farm fair, today the Ridge Festival. Rigby wasn’t impressed by the crowds on his walking route. Carrying a stick through it was tough. Photographing it while holding a dog carrying a stick, tougher. 030
Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 05/07/2025Day 186/365 #photoaday Listening, watching, and catching up with friends at the Meanwood Valley Urban Farm summer fair—summer sounds and familiar faces. 030

Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 03/07/2025Day 184/365 #photoaday What a treat to be on a writing retreat. 030
Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 02/07/2025Day 183/365 #photoaday I’m on a writing retreat. I spotted a writing treat. 000
Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 01/07/2025Day 182/365 #photoaday On the eve of a haircut, Jude and I recreated Femme au Bouquet 2025/1922 as a farewell to her very long hair. Zoom in on the phone to spot how similar they are. Except for the phone bit of course. 020
Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 30/06/2025Day 181/365 #photoaday And just like that, June was done. A long, hot day wrapped up with some long, hot shadows and a long-haired, hot dog. 020
Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 29/06/2025Day 180/365 #photoaday The look of a cat who’s clocked you’re a ‘dog person’. 030
Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 28/06/2025Day 179/365 #photoaday Today’s parkrun tail walker came with an actual tail—and helped collect the kilometre markers on the final lap. Good boy, Rigby. 040
Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 27/06/2025Day 178/365 #photoaday Being good and doing my knee strength work. Not fun, definitely not comfy—but it gives me a bit of control, and the knowledge it’ll eventually help with recovery is what’s keeping me coming back. 010
Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 26/06/2025Day 177/365 #photoaday Not the best photo I’ve taken, but easily one of the best-smelling ones while making it. 000
Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 25/06/2025Day 176/365 #photoaday Volunteered at my run club’s Summer Mile race tonight. I was on safety pin duty—essential kit for keeping your number on the front. Though from where I was standing, I mostly saw the backs. 000
Lizzie Coombes / Betty Lawless @bettylawless.bsky.social · 24/06/2025Day 175/365 #photoaday One of my favourite pictures in the Golden Acre Park café. I remember looking at it with my kids, imagining how it must’ve been when it looked like that. It’s still fabulous, but the park in that photo looks like it had a different kind of fun. 020
