Finally.

Starmer and Farage both drape themselves in flags but once again it's really clear where their loyalty really is.

It's Trump first. They will always be on the side of the super rich and powerful - no matter how heinous the crime.

This is not patriotism. It's subservience.

A man of integrity and compassion. I'll never forget seeing the show recorded live many years ago, when I still lived in London.

pls

What follows Starmer is likely to be worse (but the current Labour party is just slightly less embarrassing Tories, so who cares) so we'd better be voting Green.

Classic. Awful day at work, colleagues being toxic, strangers being rude, existential dread gnawing my mind, anxiety through the roof, let me go home and put on Adrenaline Maxxer 3000 to help me chill

I used to tell people that I'm in the credits of the final Harry Potter movie as a source of pride - it was an ambition I fulfilled.

I no longer do this. I'm horrified by what a hateful asshole Rowling has become and my involvement with her project is now shameful.

People have been convincing themselves they're in relationships with fictional characters for decades now, so I don't find this the least bit surprising

Two large standing stones, the right-side one closer to the camera than the other, dominate the foreground while two leafless trees are in the background, near the horizon. Smaller stones litter the grass. The sky is grey and moody.

So #StandingStoneSunday is a thing? Neat!

Here's a shot from Dartmoor, taken last year. I called it "Duolith" - I kinda like how the trees in the background balance the stones in the foreground.

buh, you're the one who went straight to penis passports

Bro wants a world where a dick flash can be used as a toilet passport.

That sentence was as weird to write as its implication.

bruh

A shelf of Doctor Who books, each spine carrying part of one larger image. Doubles and missing volumes create an extra-wide but one-eyed Christopher Eccleston.

New #doctorwho villain just dropped.

A picture of York Minster cathedral in golden hour

A picture of York Minster cathedral taken from a nearby street. A bus and cars are visible in front of it.

A picture of The Shambles in York, England. A street famous for its crooked buildings

A picture of a boat passing under a bridge in York, England. People enjoying food at a cafe are in the foreground.

It's lovely, you should visit

A starscape with the Milky Way somewhat visible slightly right of centre. The freground shows trees, buildings and a lawn with some distortion from the wide angle lens used. The horizon shows evidence of light pollution.

I really need to go some places with low light pollution, but for now Hope Valley in Derbyshire will do.

A little Milky Way action on show here.

A snow-covered peak in the centre, with a shear cliff facing the camera that has darker rocky areas. A gentler slope is to the left with clear green visible below a fading snow lone. An out-of-focus drystone wall is in the foreground. The sky is cloudy with a little blue showing.

Mam Tor was looking truly wintry after a light spinkling over 1000 feet. It falls a few hundred feet tall of being a true mountain, but it has a special place in my heart.

Me when made up number in computer goes up:

Gorgeous.

The word "ghoulish" comes to mind.

Just wanted to say how inspiring I find your landscapes. Makes me want to get out and see the world.

Rough stone steps, fairly tall, and covered in green lichens and moss. There's a large tree to either side, the left side having visible roots. Out-of-focus autumn foliage is in the foreground. The background is bare autumnal trees and sky, with the sun filtering through.

Stairway to Autumn.

A closeup of a golden autumn leaf, yet to fall on a tree that is mostly bare. An out-of-focus autumnal wooded area is in the background.

Autumn is the best season. Finally cool enough to walk for miles, the gold and the red. A gentle shower here and there. The promise of cosy nights. Coffee.

A warm sunset scene of autumn trees casting their shadows on grass. The sun is behind the trees, directly in front of the camera, creating a glow.

A sunset panorama of some farmland. It's warm, the trees are losing their foliage, and the sun is just about to go below the horizon.

A shot of a fence in some farmland, in the evening just as the sun is about to dip below the horizon. A footpath sign post is on the left hand side. A stony surface is visible in the foreground, a little out of focus.

A mobile phone mast dominates this vertical twilight shot, with a tree to the right of it. A dry stone wall is in front of both and grass is in front of that. A small building is to the extreme left. The moon is clearly visible near the centre of the image.

Out with the new superzoom for the first time - it's perfect for 90% of my photography.

Despite always having gone for fast lenses, whenever I do landscape I always stop down to f/8 or more anyway.

Just makes so much sense to carry one light lens that does it all.

#photography #landscape

New lens day! As I gravitate more to landscape, this super sharp (but relatively slow) superzoom makes so much sense for a daily carry lens.

Hey let's just take the dog for a quick stroll.... er, maybe later

Let's not keep normalising that for them.

All the time. I only ever get to play one-shots with friends and family, and I incorporate stuff I like from the books into those.

Thumbs up if you have a humiliation fetish

A sunny view over a valleyedvillage - roads, houses and cars are visible. Dense, autumn-coloured woodland is on either side. In the distance taller hills are visible. The sun is in the top left of the pictrure, with a blue sky and light to moderate clouding.

A classic view over Matlock Bath from the Heights of Abraham, Derbyshire.
