It’s nice to see other people’s images but Bluesky is just another online place my work can be ignored. Really doubt it’s worth the time spent on it, and that goes for instagram, twitter, facebook and any other social media. 2026 is about real life for me.

Remember that time when folk had that wee 3D gallery you could look around and see the NFTs they’d bought 😂 Is that still a thing?

Great to contribute to this. Trees for Life do incredible work in restoring Scotland’s Caledonian forest.

I named the island Ealabhaigh. I don’t belong to a place in the Hebrides, so I’ve created my own. This ongoing series is how I imagine it. Impressions of an island that only I have seen. Memories of a place I’ve never been to.

When I was deep in the midst of my Hebrides books I’d dream of the islands. A recurring dream of one island in particular. It wasn’t an actual island, or even a place on a specific island. But I always knew that in the dream it was the same distant island.

I am absolutely buzzing to announce Beautiful Shambles, a visual love letter to Glasgow with all its character, charm and contradictions. For one weekend, four Scottish artists come together to share what this city means to us, each in our own language of image, colour and place.

A traffic cone peaks out from beneath flattened blue hoarding with wasteground beyond. On the horizon is the Riverside Museum with the Science Centre Tower and Tall Ship beside it. A path through parkland to a blue lorry next to blue hoarding. Beyond is the Riverside Museum with the Science Centre Tower, Tall Ship and new Govan Bridge.Blue hoarding boards with a dismal block of student flats peering over the top.

I live in a very agricultural area with big open fields, so it's always a bit of challenge photographically. Abstracts shapes are one way round it. #ruralabstracts #abstract #photography #Aberdeenshire 📷

I find the mute words list helps (and did on twitter as well). One problem I have with social media is having certain things thrust in front of me when I’m not wanting it. I’m willing to go and read the news, even if it is bleak, but I’m far happier when I choose to do so.

Brilliant work. Think that church is my favourite building in the Hebrides
