Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 09/10/2026This dog would refuse to go out in the rain when we adopted him 18 months ago & would actively pull away from any body of water He was fear aggressive towards other dogs Now he’ll sit quietly under a table in a busy cafe with other dogs around And go on a boat #photoaday #dogs #staffy #rescuedogs 050 0

Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 03/10/2026A sadly no longer with us grandmother had many indiscreet euphemisms that she would happily use in public, chief among them “she looks a bit Claire Balding” Another favourite of hers; “saw some urban looking lads hanging around the shops, probably up to no good” 😬 110 0

Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Going back through some photos from the year; this one was whilst walking the Monsal Trail as part of our Miles for MS fundraising. The dog is wearing his MS Trust bandana. Mrs B is on an electric trike that we hired so that she could cover the distance. #photoaday #dogs #MS #multiplesclerosis 030 0

Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 18/09/2026Cool. I’ve been playing Dave the Diver for a while and was very surprised to find a race of “sea people” who all get addicted to a card game; there’s a mini version of Balatro in there to spend your time playing them all at it. 000 0
Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Sat peacefully minding my own business at a cafe when suddenly Daves’ lycra bulge appears and looks like it’s about to stir my coffee. That’s my issue with it. Pop a pair of looser shorts over the lycra when you stop for snacks lads please? 050 0

Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Until adopting/rescuing a dog last year we’d only ever had a dog from a puppy. Such a totally different experience, and incredibly rewarding. Well done to you, hope you all are happy. 010 0
Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 18/08/2026The streets around Mercato Centrale are full of stalls offering a variety of leather goods and clothing. To be honest not many are of decent quality. But it lends a bustling atmosphere to the area. #florence #photoaday 010 0
Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 17/08/2026A typical street in medieval Florence. The overhanging upper floors are the telltale signs. During this time there were taxes based on the size of the groundfloor of the building and taxes throughout history create incentives for people to avoid or mitigate them. #florence #photoaday 031 0
Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 16/08/2026Whatever it is that you were doing or thinking, Dante is disappointed in you. That’s what I always imagine when passing this bust that is on an elevated shelf on the outside of his house in medieval Florence. I love the tight little streets around here. #florence #photoaday 031 0
Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 15/08/2026There was some sort of display of retro Poliziotti in Piazza della Signoria & Mrs B hopped into an old Fiat & snapped this photo of me through the windscreen. #photoaday #florence 130 0
Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 14/08/2026Family having cocktails at Loggia Roof Bar in Santo Spirito. Myself, my wife, our two sons, and their partners. I like that the sun blurs us all and adds a slightly dreamlike quality to the image. Or maybe that was the negronis. 📸 is my sons #photoaday #florence #family 020 0
Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 13/08/2026This is my favourite bar in Piazza Santo Spirito. Pitta M’ingolli is always a good place for light plates, something to drink & the perfect spot for people watching. If the boards are hanging outside then it’s table service, if not then go & order at the counter. #photoaday #florence 020 0

Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 09/08/2026What I need in the morning. There are many cafes & bars in Florence where you will get an excellent coffee but Cafe Gilli is the oldest (1733) & it is a beautiful place. It is pricey if you sit down as a tourist but “un caffe al banco” will cost you just €1.50. 📸 is mine #photoaday #florence 010 0
Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 08/08/2026I’ve just turned 50, but when I’m properly grown up I aspire to dress as classily as the gentleman in this photo. Taken in Santo Spirito, Florence. 📸 is mine #photoaday #florence 030 0
Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 07/08/2026Bistecca alla Fiorentina at Antico Ristoro di Cambi in San Frediano, Florence. Just the most simple & amazing food, meat like butter. Order one to share with a nice Chianti & enjoy this splendid restaurant. (Yes those are normal size roast potatoes in the background) 📸 is mine #photoaday #florence 020 0
Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Oltrano. I love that this side of the river you get the more relaxed and carefree feel of Florence, which is a nice contrast to the grandiosity of the historic centre. 📸 is mine #photoaday #florence 020 0
Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 05/08/2026In the logistics world lots of firms have convinced themselves that they can do away with experience and knowledge because “AI” and that any Tom, Dick or Sally can now deliver around cities or remote rural areas with a bit of software. Sure, you can deliver to that school at 3pm but is it wise…? 🤷♂️ 000 0
Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 05/08/2026One of the “Prisoners” - an unfinished or practice sculpture by Michelangelo. The Academia does a good job of displaying these in the hall leading to the David and it really helps you to understand how the artist worked. A must visit in Florence. 📸 is mine #photoaday #florence 020 0
Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 04/08/2026Dante being all dramatic in the dark. I love this statue that stands right outside the Basilica di Santa Croce in Florence. Make sure you say hello to him. 📸 is mine #photoaday #florence 020 0
Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 03/08/2026This is the Torre dei Belfredelli, a Medieval tower in Oltrano, Florence, just two minutes walk from Ponte Vecchio. I’ve always liked this building but have never been inside. It surprises you as you don’t see it coming from your perspective at street level. 📸 is mine #photoaday #florence 071 0
Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 02/08/2026Today is our 29th wedding anniversary. Here’s a picture of us taken by one of our sons in the Bardini Gardens earlier in the year when the wisteria was in full bloom. (If you visit Florence at the best time of year, April/ May you must visit these gardens) #photoaday #florence #anniversary 020 0
Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 01/08/2026Interior of the Basilica of San Lorenzo, Florence. From the exterior it looks unfinished and the interior is certainly less opulent than many others in the city, but I think it’s rather wonderful. There’s a grace to it and the whole complex is worth visiting. 📸 is mine #photoaday #florence 040 0
Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 31/07/2026A Room With A View. This particular room is in Palazzo Vecchio and, as per anywhere elevated in Florence, the dome of the Duomo catches the eye. 📸is mine #photoaday #florence 040 0

Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 29/07/2026Some of the many stunning globes that are on display in Museo Galileo. This brilliant little museum is just around the corner (on the river side) from the Uffizi and is well worth an hour or so of your time. 📸 is mine #photoaday #florence 020 0
Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 28/07/2026Sometimes it rains. When it does you can get a different perspective. Here’s Giottos Bell Tower, normally found standing proud next to the Duomo, reflected in a little puddle on the ground. 📸 is mine #photoaday #florence 031 0
Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 27/07/2026Via dei Neri, Florence, early evening. This street takes you from Piazza delle Signoria to Santa Croce, and is where you’ll typically find lots of people getting one of the famous sandwiches from All’Antico Vinaio. 📸 is mine #photoaday #florence 030 0
Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 26/07/2026This is the staircase from the courtyard of Palazzo Pitti that is the entrance to the Boboli Gardens. The lady walking up the steps is my wife ❤️ 📸 is mine #photoaday #florence 020 0
Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 25/07/2026This is the central courtyard of Palazzo Pitti, just through the main entrance. You can see a fountain atop the wall, with a grotto below, and that is where the Boboli gardens begin. The Palace and gardens are a fantastic visit, 5 minutes stroll from Ponte Vecchio. 📸 is mine #photoaday #florence 050 0

Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 24/07/2026The Medici balls. The family crest is everywhere in the city (this one is on a tomb in the Medici Chapel). Look around when in Florence and see just how often you spot them. What is the symbolism? Nobody really knows, but the balls probably represent coins. 📸 is mine #photoaday #florence 020 0
Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 23/07/2026Early morning halfway up the Arnolfo Tower. Looking down onto the rooftops between Piazza della Signoria and the river. On top of the Loggia you can see the terrace of the cafe of the Uffizi; pricey coffee there but an excellent view. 📸 is mine #photoaday #florence 030 0
Stu @stuburnham.bsky.social · 22/07/2026My favourite painting in the Uffizi, Primavera by Botticelli. The detail, especially on the gossamer thin dresses is exquisite. 📸 is mine #photoaday #florence 020 0
