I feel like we're losing so many of our matriarchs. Our wise women. Time for our generation to step up and fill their shoes 💕

Whitby sunset just before the rain. I lay in my tent listening to it fall, waking to a misty sunrise looking out towards Whitby Abbey and the sea. #photography #thephotohour #stormhour #northyorkshire #camping

A sunset view towards the North Yorkshire coastline just inland from Whitby. An orange sun is sinking below the skyline, pale orange to the right, grey blue clouds above. In the foreground a bank of seeded thistles catch the light.

Gorgeous 2-gig weekend of singing. Including the first full outing of new 6-piece group Pitchwitches at the Arts Barge York tonight. It's good for the soul. Cycled home, followed by the scent of lime blossom. I love this time of year in York 💕 #singing #York #limeblossom #summer #photography

It's not been the best of weeks. But then you find an amazing thing. A tiny white oak sapling. Never seen one before. Neither had my very knowledgeable abori/horticulturist friend. Several together in one part of the wood. Beautiful. #oaktree #photography #nature #thephotohour #northyorkshire

Sunny Intervals' is clearly Met Office code for 'it's not raining so just be grareful'. Still... finally explored the new #Yorkcentral road, coffee and some writing in #rowntreesparkyork and a slow wander home. Time for tea and crumpets! #reflections #sundaywalks #thephotohour #photography

Despite a rogue fire alarm 'interval' and standing outside in a very cold York for half an hour while they checked the theatre wasn't burning down, this was amazing theatre. And I now have a signed tea towel. Happy days. Thank you @markthomasinfo.bsky.social #livetheatre #Fullmoon #bitchillyout

Upper Watergate Stairs near Deptford. My favourite photo from a top weekend in London 😊 #photooftheday #photography #black-and-white #stormhour #photohour

A black and white photo taken at the top of concrete steps at the side of the River Thames. There is a very high tide. The river swells against the top of the steps, the step railings just visible.
The top step is old and cracked. Cobbles are just visible at the bottom of the photo.
On the left side is a wall of a building, graffiti just visible far left, and ivy growing on the brickwork. A small bush grows out of the old jetty on the right.
The river is in the midground and in the background a distant view of buildings and tower blocks on the Isle of Dogs.

Some evening tree therapy after a day spent at the laptop. Gorgeous sun in Homestead Park, York UK. #stormhour #thephotohour #photography #trees

Trees silhouetted against the sun that is shining through branches of the central trees. Some are coming into leaf, some branches are still bare. The trees throw long shadows on the grass on the foreground and a pale blue sky is behind.

Online meetings are so common now that a face to face feels like an event! Newcastle today. Quick lunch at the Baltic & to see the Sycamore Gap 'Heartwood' exhibition. I thought I'd missed it. It's incredibly moving. Recommended. #alphabetchallenge #weekEforEvent #photography

There was a sugar coating of snow on the North York Moors this morning. With a biting wind and heavy clouds. And still it's stunningly beautiful. #photography #photooftheday #yorkshire

Green and brown farmland in the foreground with a wire fence. Hedges beyond and in the distance trees and hills looking over the moors towards Scarborough. Heavy grey clouds fill the top half of the photo with the edges of pink sunshine peeking through.
