Talisker tides, Isle of Skye #Scotland #IsleofSkye #Talisker www.damianshields.com
A little blue/grey pond with a small black sand island with some straggly brown grass sits in front of a larger black sand dune also covered in brown grass. Behind is a jagged mountain range with some snow on the black peaks and slopes. Some sea fog can just be seen rising on the right hand side beneath the peaks.
Even in drab light, some scenes in #Iceland are still magical.
Stokksnes, Feb 2020.
I've watched this at least four times, and I swear to God, I can specifically hear Armando Iannucci laughing in the audience.
Ladies?

Great piece here by Wyndham Wallace on Talk Talk's third album, The Colour Of Spring. It's a genuinely groundbreaking, innovative, and most importantly, Really Good album that deserves to be spoken of in the same breath as Spirit Of Eden and Laughing Stock thequietus.com/opinion-and-... 1/2

Strongly believe it's time Stephen Pearce does an interview with Radio Derby. Maybe he can explain why #dcfc sent Warne into the season with a non-existent strike force, why so little progress has been made in January and clear up rumours of interference in team selection @domjdietrich.bsky.social
Long exposure black and white photo of mountains in the middle, black sand with some swirly water in the foreground, and some streaks of moving white and grey cloud above.
I don't take many really long exposure shots these days, but occasionally the clouds look just right to capture some good movement so I get the filters out. Like this one from Stokksnes in south-east #Iceland in April 2023.
A lovely moody morning on Isle of Harris.

Happy Birthday to the versatile Niclas Alexandersson.
You were a manager’s dream.
1/ So, where were we? Oh yep, #duvetknowitschristmas. Firstly, some admin: Twitter/X has evidently been run into the ground by a preening, self-radicalised clot, so while there's a slim possibility that this annual celebration might be thriving over there, I won't know cos I won't be looking.
Bloody hell!
Nights like that don't happen too often, we just have to enjoy them. Great goals, could have had a few more... But that's just greedy. All that matters is that #dcfc were head and shoulders better than Portsmouth in every department.
Cashin going off is the only fly in the ointment 🙏

Roll up, roll up... I've got some books for them to read!

It’s a bit brisk this morning. Snow in November? Feels like the ‘80s again. ❄️⛄️
Hi everyone! Well so far, this app feels like the social media equivalent of turning your toaster upside down and ridding yourself of all the detritus that’s accumulated there for years. Or taking your car to the garage for a good service and oil change.
👋
An international break feels like a good time to promote a book! If you, like me, are at risk of suffering death by tedium due to lack of #dcfc for a fortnight, then why not relive last season's promotion?
