I’ve reached the point - well actually, I reached it a while ago - where I’m militantly anti-AI. Fine - use it in bioscience labs and radiology where it might help analyse data more effectively. Use it sparingly for systems engineering. Everywhere else, it can fuck off.

Storms and sunset over Sainte-Colombe, seen from across the Rhône in Vienne.

The footbridge across the Rhône in Vienne, looking west towards the hills behind Ste-Colombe, illuminated at dusk with yellow-tinged lights shining up on the girders, suspended by cables with a stone arch rising in the middle of the river, set against the backdrop of a stormy sunset in hues of pink, red and yellow with layers of grey-blue clouds. The claret-coloured skies reflect off the mildly choppy waters of the river below, here at the northern tip of the Côtes du Rhône wine-making region.

Nouvelles vignes qui poussent sur la Côte Rôtie. #Rhone

Une jeune vigne d'une douzaine de centimètres, poussant avec une fleur rose et des petits pétales verts, à l'intérieur d'un emballage plastique attaché à un crochet en métal.

Un poteau en métal de couleur bordeaux d'environ deux mètres de hauteur, incrusté dans un champ en pente à côté des vignes. Du lettrage sur le poteau lit « CÔTE RÔTIE ».

Une vue depuis la Place des Jacobins à Lyon, avec le sommet orné de la fontaine au cœur de la place en premier plan, les immeubles iconiques du côté ouest avec des coins arrondis en arrière plan, et la lune sanguine au milieu contre un fond de ciel noir.

Après de nombreuses années de regarder la fête des #lumières à Lyon, voici à #Vienne une trentaine de kilomètres au sud, son Hôtel de Ville illuminé.

Quatre photos de l'Hôtel de Ville à Vienne, France, prises à différents moments du spectacle appartenant au 'Festival Région des Lumières'. Chaque image montre une façade colorée par des vives projections, sur le thème vague de l'histoire de la ville, de sa période romaine via son emplacement au cœur des vignobles du Rhône jusqu'aux temps modernes avec son festival de jazz. Visibles donc pendant le quart d'heure du spectacle sont des éléments de l'architecture de la ville ( la cathédrale, l'amphithéâtre romain ), des vignes et grappes de raisins, des personnages joueurs de jazz dans le style de dessins animés, etc.

For Blue Monday we can't think of anything more appropriate than this charming depiction of a man getting his face eaten off by a leopard. #MosaicMonday

A horrific image of a someone who seems to have his hands tied behind his back. A big cat (the predator kind, not the overfed pet kind) has jumped up at him and is devouring his face. Blood splashes on the floor.

La raffinerie de Feyzin, au sud de Lyon, vue depuis le train au coucher du soleil. The Feyzin oil refinery, south of Lyon, seen from the train at sunset.

Une ligne d'une quinzaine de cheminées, de gauche à droite, comme des silhouettes devant une bande horizontale de ciel orange, une bande au-dessus de nuages foncés avec le soleil couchant qui brille derrière, et des rayons en haut qui projettent sur plusieurs directions contre un fond de ciel peu nuageuse gris et orange.

Il y a une semaine je rentrais en France depuis l'Angleterre, mais j'ai fait un petit détour pour voir Montréal au coucher du soleil ! Et voici donc le bureau de poste dans le joli village de Montréal, dans le département de l'Yonne.

Le bureau de poste dans un ancien village français. L'extérieur d'un ancien immeuble en pierre avec une façade beige-orange, une paire de volets blancs sur l'une des fenêtres, des pots de fleurs posés devant l'entrée, et une deuxième entrée à droite encadrée de bricks rouges avec un horloge classique (blanc avec les heures en chiffres romains noirs) au-dessus. À côté de cette entrée sont les lettres 'PTT' au-dessus d'une boîte aux lettres jaune 'La Poste'. Une deuxième boîte aux lettres se situe encastrée à côté de l'autre porte. Il y a une petite banquette avec une table, et le tout est vu en-dessous d'un ciel clair peu avant le crépuscule.

At Jazz à Vienne on Thursday night to see the legendary Hammond organist Rhoda Scott. Streaks of lightning replaced the stunning sunset backdrop, affording the audience a double spectacle. Jools Holland arrived after the interval and was chased off the stage mid-set by torrential rain on his piano.

The stage at Jazz à Vienne, lit up by spotlights with Rhoda Scott's organ playing relayed on big screens at the sides. The stage is seen from above on the rungs of the Roman amphitheatre, and set against a backdrop of the town of Vienne looking north-west towards a dip in the hills, above which is a burning orange sunset underneath menacing dark grey thunderclouds.

A Sunday stroll around Vienne, Isère.

A vista looking down a staircase that bends around to the left, buffeted by a high wall on one side and traditional pastel-shaded buildings descending to the right, with sun rays and a blue sky above.

View along the river bank of the Gère in Vienne, the towpath on the left, and traditional orange-brown brick buildings that descend straight into the water on the right, under a blue sky. The river bends towards the left and under a small bridge.
