The craziness of the day leaves me wanting the stillness and silence that comes from standing in a woodland, away from everyone and everything, as nice as it is today. #Photography #BlackAndWhite #Landscape #LandscapePhotography #Monochrome #Fog #Fujifilm #Trees
This is a black and white photo of a foggy woodland scene. In the background you can see trees, which are being partially obscured by fog. In the foreground, and middle ground, and other, increasingly darker, trees, which fill the frame

Thank you to all my lovely followers - now up to 6,000 (1/3 of what I had on Twitter and yet so much more engagement) - I will continue to post lots of lovely photos of Iceland until I run out (which will be never!). And here's a bit of swooshery from last month at Stokksnes in #Iceland.
Moody, cloudy black and white scene. A black sand beach has some white waves trailed across it, with some pointy mountains below a band of cloud in the distance.

Yesterday, @athenacarey.bsky.social was asking me if there's a place I revisit a lot and, yes, I would say this is it. I live about 4 miles from this iconic hill and I've shot it SO many times over the years. #photography #blackandwhite #landscapephotography #monochrome #dorset
This is a black and white photo of an old, cobbled hill. The image has been taken at dusk, and so the scene is quite dark. On the left there are a row of cottages, with some outside lights on. On the right is a large stone wall with vegetation growing out of it. There are cobbles on the ground and a small fence on the right.

In need of a spiritual boost, I spent the day near Glen Coe, immersed in the wildness of #Scotland. Having visited everywhere I had planned I went on an aimless drive, parked before heading home - and looked up… www.AndyMacD.co.uk #LandscapePhotography #photography #FineArtPhotography #mountains

The magnitude of Hochul and Jeffries's political miscalculation is that they took something that is currently unpopular but that will either get more popular or fade from the news by September and turned it into an attention-grabbing example the Democratic party's ineptitude that no one will forget.

Happy Indigenous People's day, the crimes of the conquistadors were known and recorded not just by their victims but by their cultural and linguistic contemporaries.

*extremely* telling that the NYT frames a family leaving a state because their trans son literally could not get the medical care he needed as a "politically motivated move" and an abstract "issue" rather than one connected to their child's intrinsic humanity www.nytimes.com/2023/10/07/u...
NYT screenshot: 
One day earlier, in a neighboring state, another couple making a politically motivated move had a different flag on display — a Pride flag on a T-shirt.

Jennie and Jeff Noble were packing their possessions into a 26-foot U-Haul truck in suburban Iowa. Ms. Noble, 37, who was wearing the Pride T-shirt, and her husband were leaving Iowa for Minnesota.

Their only child, Julien, came out as transgender at age 11. Now 16, Julien uses prescription testosterone. After Iowa banned gender-affirming medical care for minors, criminalizing their son’s treatments, the Nobles — lifelong Iowans — concluded they had to get out.The Huckins family and the Noble family have not met, yet their journeys — from blue Oregon to red Missouri, and from red Iowa to blue Minnesota — mirror each other, unfolding only five weeks apart this spring. One family relocated because of a single issue — restrictions on transgender rights — while the other believed a broad swath of progressive policies had degraded their quality of life. But both families used strikingly similar language to describe their main concern: the need for personal safety.
