Hope you enjoy those 3 like I do, hard to believe they're quite old now (aren't we all getting that way tho'!😆). Gotta keep at Jes to watch Fleabag! The pathos of last ep of series 1 is the pay-off for a sometimes quite unlikeable, flawed, fuck-up of a character (& therefore relatable character!)
From L'enfant racine (2003), woman in black holding a lantern up with ring of light in forest, fairies in trees, starry night, illustration.
Goodnight.

Forged from stars, in fire’s glow,
Cosmic whispers softly flow.
Silent watcher, wise and true,
Made of stardust, just like you.
'Intergalactic Owl' whispers of our origins, guiding us to embrace the wisdom within and soar toward the infinite mysteries of the universe.

I couldn't resist stepping to see what sort of #sunsetphotography the #Saharandust would produce. It was still half an hour before low tide, so my feet got a little wet, but I was delighted to see I wasn't the only one enjoying the spectacle. Thanks to whoever walked into shot! #PhotographyIsArt
Mist drifts across the landscape in the cairngorms national park, during blue hour. The sky is kissed orange by the low sun.
Some misty minimalism for this Sunday.

I’m still trying to focus on small beauties and happy memories like this rose.
This morning I shall be doing a tour @RHSWisley for some of the Kew tour guides and next week they will do the same for us at Kew. Exciting!

A beautiful sunset from December. Since this photo, it’s been months of dark, rainy & grey weather in England. I’m hoping the weather gods provide some better weather soon!

You'd pay good money for that hairdo at a city salon 😆
Also from Meadows Creek is this shot of a Port Lincoln parrot and a red wattlebird at one of the sheep troughs on the farm. Of course Shayne calls these "bastard parrots" because they eat his fruit 😆
(This is the trough that you see Abla standing in sometimes.)

Over the past few weeks, I haven't been active with my camera, so I sometimes look through old folders to edit overlooked photos. This photo of Abla (the best girl) is from early 2024 🧡

A Republican era house buried under the Imperial Palace, the stucco relief seen here gives the house its modern name.

A circular necklace made of alternating dark and light cylindrical beads, with three larger flat, L‑shaped pendants hanging from the lower half, displayed against a black background.
This 6,000-year-old necklace offers a glimpse into the artistry of the Neolithic Schussenried culture in southwest Germany.
Its three marble pendants and jet‑and‑limestone beads create a striking black‑and‑white contrast, characteristic of the Schussenried culture's jewellery design. 🧵1/2

The picture shows a piece of limestone with a drawing of a mouse sitting in front of a table of offerings, smelling the fragrance of a lotus flower which she holds in her hand. Opposite of the table is a cat, holding a fan.
A charming #Egyptian drawing of a #cat acting as a servant to a #mouse. Drawings of animals acting as people were meant as satire of the society and politics.
Dating 13th/12th century BC, probably from Deir el-Medina, #Egypt.
