Hi, and welcome!
I have two BlueSky accounts.
This one is for my photos (and others') and other nice things.

The other account, @infinite8horizon2.bsky.social, is for politics and not-so-nice things. Choose wisely, and check the auto-complete.

Bio is the same (it's me!), link in profile.
Enjoy.

It's a big place, some parts are boring and flat (like where I grew up) 😊

Good Morning!
Yesterday morning, to be precise, raining light and shadow

Take your pick

Not long after sunrise the sun's light breaking through ragged clouds producing many shafts of golden light from an intense, diffuse glow. The light picks out the skyline and gleams off the river below. Blue sky is just visible high in the corners of the image.

Oh, we all embellish a little... I say "retired" when it should be "given up" 🤣

Lovely… let me return the favour and wish I was there 😍

Stunning images as ever, Mamady ❤️
That’s a very picturesque description of vagrancy, though 🤣

Thank you, Marjan 🙏
I thought it *was* you, good thing I didn’t chase after them 🤭 😇
It’s only an hour’s drive (and a day’s flight 😔)

🤷 Yeah, that last case is the most perplexing... Either that or it's a gentle reminder to trust our own instincts and not worry about other people's opinion 😄. Maybe stop short of cutting off an ear, though...

Thank you, Alina 🙏🤍
I've decided that I'm a poor judge of what appeals; some of my favourite shots get very little attention, and this one was in the "hmmm, maybe, revisit" pile 🤣.
That said, on revisiting I decided it was definitely worth posting, so a clear second look is the secret...

Good Morning!
May you enjoy peaceful walks

An almost flat calm green sea beneath a clouded but bright sky, with a wedge of golden sand. In the distance a lone figure is deliberately walking through the shallow water, enjoying the space, solitude and simple sensations.

There are worse ruinations 😊 Nothing wrong with faded grandeur.

Two satyrs holding an ornamental urn in the grounds of Versailles Palace. Please excuse the colour rendition, it's a scan of a forty year old transparency.

Here be beasties

A globe showing the known world, date unknown, but presumably early given the amount of the Americas unknown. Turns out they were right, though, there are beasties there.

a large barren tree leans backward at an acute angle to the ground, it's wide and diverse branches shooting off in every direction - well balanced against the soft muddy soils of the river bank strewn with fallen leaves & frost
