Je vais mettre ma petite touche de frenchy ! AO Magazine vient de sortir et il célèbre l’esthétique de l’ordinaire. Créé de l’autre côté de la Manche par des Anglais et une Anglaise, vous y retrouverez plein de photographes de Bluesky (et même moi). Une belle aventure ! Enjoy ! Take a free ride !

who's apparently blithely oblivious to the obvious jokes about his name, something Idle no doubt endured. I'm sure there are many examples, and some are no doubt coincidence also...

I'm sure the effect is real, but obviously the mechanism is in the individual, not pre-ordained. Some people will no doubt be influenced, consciously or unconsciously, and some immune. There's Eric Idle, (Monty Python) who wrote a sketch about a man called Smoketoomuch /

I did quite a lot of film photography in my 20s and 30s, then family life reduced that to mostly family and holidays. I waited a long time for DSLR tech, then moved all my Nikon kit to digital & with retirement restarted as a serious hobby. Now I shoot OM system for weight, stabilisation & reach...

I'm in Brisbane, now. I've been here a while, with a few years on the Sunshine Coast in between. I've done some bird and landscape photography in the NT as well, visiting my son and his family. My parents gave me a film rangefinder camera when I was 12 to document a year overseas, manual, no meter.

🙏 Thank you, again! Yes, they give me a lot of pleasure (and a measure of frustration from time to time 😊)

Thanks Audrey 🙏, you're the word expert!

No, I'm hopeless these days, impossibly sensitive. As a kid and teen I used to be barefoot a lot and could deal with many surfaces, but now the tiniest thing has me hopping... Mercifully the Lego days are long behind me 🤣

Peter Barnes @infinite8horizon.com · 17/09/2026

😬 Impossible, unless you went barefoot all the time... even then, probably. I didn't attempt it!

Peter Barnes @infinite8horizon.com · 17/09/2026

Yes... It was an amazingly dense shoreline, you don't find that often on more populated beaches. If I'd brought my hiking clothes I'd have been sprawled on the sand, but I travelled light. Next time!

Peter Barnes @infinite8horizon.com · 17/09/2026

🤣 I blame continental drift... It's still only an hour or so from Brisbane, but now the first leg is a bit longer 😊. There *are* islands in the bay, as well, but I suspect not as nice as yours. It's a rain-check, then until one of us next swaps hemispheres 😊

Peter Barnes @infinite8horizon.com · 16/09/2026

😄 I'll let Ric know! I thought you were somewhere in Canadia... Yes, the Sunny coast is a lovely area, I was in Sunshine Beach for a time and then in the hinterland, I love it. Just an hour or so 🙏

Peter Barnes @infinite8horizon.com · 16/09/2026

😊 It's a special music, isn't it ☺️ You're very welcome, the prosecco's in the fridge, but we'll have to rendezvous 😄—that's a friend's back yard when I stayed a few days, not mine alas. He's still on the Sunshine Coast while I returned, regretfully, to Brisbane. I'll put him on notice 😊.

🙏 Thanks, IG 🙏 Happy to share it 🫶 The soft music of clinking shells is lovely too, when the tide moves them gently.

Peter Barnes @infinite8horizon.com · 16/09/2026

🙏 Thanks, Alina 🙏 Yes, the contrasts really appealed... Glad you find the beauty... It's an interesting subject that works at several scales, but you can only choose one per photo 😁. The shells are a wonderful miniature landscape as well.

😊🙏... Glad *someone* noticed 😇 It's like Sapir-Whorf, beguiling yet possibly just wishful thinking.
