It's easy to talk about an authentic life... It's much braver to really lead one. To all the sport dancers at @gaygames.bsky.social at #ValenciaGayGames congratulations for bringing so much joy. #Pride

Please give my partner @jeffjohnsonn.bsky.social a follow on @bsky.app ... He was among the brave riders of the new Lunarix ride at the #EasterShow in Sydney.
It's night. Arms of a steel carnival ride emerge from the theatre smoke to show brave riders in spinning chairs.

Aunty Nid makes traditional Thai iced tea from a small shop near the palace in Bangkok. She includes a couple of tablespoons of sugar, condensed milk, and boiling red tea. No wonder there's always a long queue of customers. #Thailand #AuntyNid #KerroTravels #Bangkok

Hey good people at @leaflet.pub ... Can you think why an image on my recent blog has been blurred? It's an image of people in a cafe. Perhaps it's something I've accidentally turned on? Here's the post: johnkerrison.leaflet.pub/3mgynmbycf222
Three staff work behind the bar at a contemporary cafe in Chiang Mai. A teal green counter and down lighting make the space feel modern.

A baby elephant shakes her head and waves her trunk with joy. The naughty resident has broken into a small garden full of herbs and vegetables at the ethical Elephant Nature Park in Chiang Mai. A keeper arrives to lead her away from the spoils. #elephants #animalrescue #Thailand

It truly is an incredible experience. For two hours, keepers take small groups of about six people around the park. They know most of the animals well, including those happy to be near people. The elephants are playful, emergetic, curious. Just astounding.

Chiang Mai's renowned Elephant Nature Park is the country's ethical home of rescued elephants. We were are able to wander the grazing yards where elephants are safe. No riding or touching the animals. Unforgettable. #Thailand #wildlife #AnimalRescue #travel

I try to remember life is a series of seasons. My work lately has been intense, almost overwhelming. This is my current moment. Worth it. Worked for it. Calm.

A weekend away on the coast. The combination of the #Fujifilm 35mm original lens with the Acros profile is a delight. The dynamic range and ability to create those retro tones of almost-silver make for special prints. #photography #photos #monochrome #fineart #blackandwhite

Another dabble with #Skylight Social, the attempt on AT Protocol at a TikTok style app. Still a little clunky? Android still missing features, I believe. Say Hi!

The Boiling Crab restaurant in Sydney. A tradition of the American south or so I'm told? Piping hot seafood, on a table, eaten with your hands. Fun! #foodie #sydneyfood #travelfood #vlogging

I was waiting at Sydney airport this morning and saw a man dressed as an inflatable koala. He was waiting for family in the United kingdom. Haha. That is one exceptional 'Welcome to Australia'. Video description: the crowd is waiting at an airport arrivals Hall. A man is in a koala suit

My partner and I watched the sun rise at Bronte this morning. It's a grand show that's changing and fleeting and suddenly over when a small sun sits high in a vast blue nothing. Sunrise is a daily reminder that life is changing and fleeting and suddenly over. Enjoy every moment.

I'm confused? I was told of a little conspiracy that Meta and Instagram have made people follow the White House and JD Vance? It appears true. However... Have "VP" followers been moved to Vance? But I still follow Harris.

Michael Paynter playing Jesus in the Australian production of Jesus Christ Superstar might go down as theatre legend. He is incredible! He perhaps outshines other cast members but this is a worthy production. Lots of seats available at Capitol Sydney ⭐⭐⭐⭐ #theatre #JCSuperstar #musical

Not sure what defines a rock star delegate? Thanks to Ashtons Events and The Marketing Academy for my spot at the #Martechretreat conference in Victoria this week. So much food for thought! Good to be home.

The #LeeMovie comes out in Australia this Thursday. If you love photography, Kate Winslet and movies by women about an inspiring woman, this is for you. Lee Miller's story is incredible and hearing Winslet talk about it this week was a treat.

I'm not great at early mornings despite several years as a producer on breakfast TV. Today's sunrise at Maroubra south of Sydney was worth it. #Sydney #Australia #NewHere
