An autumn image. A cottage, boathouse and shed on a lakeshore reflecting on the water. Behind the buildings the land rises, the bulk of the trees are laden with orange leafs. In the foreground and framing the shot, more orange is out of focus from the tree just in front of the camera lens.

I prefer taking the road less travelled when I’m in my autumn-mobile. 😊🍂

Driving down a winding country road during autumn. The leaves are changing colours, and there are mountains and trees in the distance. The sky is blue with several clouds.

Good morning. My co host Rob @robcrank68.bsky.social has announced today's #BirdOfTheDay is the 'Family Paridae of Birds' which constitute 'Tits, Chickadees & Titmice'

Fortuitous for me as I saw this little Coal Tit in my garden yesterday. #birds #Stunday #photography #EastCoastKin

A small coal tit perches delicately on a cluster of fading pink hydrangea blooms. The bird’s black cap and bib contrast with its pale cheeks and buff-toned breast, while its tiny claws grip the petals for balance. The background is softly blurred in dark green, highlighting the vivid texture and colour of the flowers

In den Augen aller Menschen wohnt eine unstillbare Sehnsucht.
In allen wohnt der gleiche Funke unstillbaren Verlangens,
das gleiche heimliche Feuer,
der gleiche tiefe Abgrund...

Vanishing and Endangered Cultures @nowaykgn.bsky.social · 1d

In the remote, mountainous regions of northern Vietnam, girls from ethnic minority groups struggle to access education. In Pakistan, young Kalash girls face similar challenges, where a lack of female teachers, scarce schools, and early marriage hinder their growth and learning.

The mountainous terrain of northern Vietnam makes access to schools difficult. Many villages are located far from the nearest primary or secondary school, often requiring children to walk several kilometers each way—sometimes over steep, muddy, or dangerous paths. During the rainy season, travel can become impossible. Because families worry about their daughters’ safety on these journeys, girls are often kept at home.

Girls are often expected to marry early (sometimes in their mid-teens) and focus on domestic responsibilities rather than schooling. In some communities, education for girls is still seen as unnecessary or even inappropriate, reinforcing a cycle where women remain dependent and underrepresented in decision-making.

The Kalash valleys are extremely remote, accessible only by winding, sometimes dangerous mountain roads that are often blocked during winter or after landslides. Many villages are hours away from the nearest school. Even where schools exist, they are few, small, and often under-resourced, lacking classrooms, sanitation, and proper teaching materials. For girls, long travel distances raise safety concerns, which discourages parents from sending them to school.

Most schools in the region teach in Urdu or English, while the Kalash speak their own language (Kalasha-mun), which has traditionally been unwritten. This language gap makes it hard for young Kalash children to understand lessons, leading to poor performance and high dropout rates. Additionally, the national curriculum doesn’t reflect Kalash culture or traditions, which can make schooling feel alien and irrelevant to both students and parents.
