I always find #landscape #photography difficult to make work. It's so hard to ground… the ground.
But sometimes, I find a way through.

Seen on #walk with the @metwalkers.bsky.social
#LeadingLines #Composition #photoMonday
View of a number of green fields, first sloping down to a hedge of trees and bushes, then sloping up with long fences snaking across the rising and uneven ground towards another line of trees. Horses are dotted around the spacious fields.

Is there a #typography equivalent to #onomatopoeia?

A word that appears to be 'gonorrea' is written in black paint on a white door, the paint has long drips coming from most of the letters.

Artist unknown. Unfound, certainly.
I dunno, have I already posted this one? Feh!

Written on a wall in mirror writing is "20TH CENTURY ATTENTION SPAN" but the last N is lost into several squiggles down the wall

View under a road bridge at night, across a wide river with lit up blocks of flats on one side, and greenery, further housing blocks, and pylons on the other. Several buildings have steam streaming into the air from their roofs.

View down across a wide landscape of fields and trees, with an electricity pylon in the centre of the photo and its wires to it dipping down from the top of the photo to it.

This mural has gone up in Kingston, ostensibly for Christmas but AI has ensured it's actually to celebrate the return of our dark lord Cthulhu

The mask might be made out of a large thick plastic storage bottle, it has round holes for eyes and mouth, and a blocky triangular nose.

Some feel TFLs efforts against #pigeons at their stations may have become a little… excessive.

Photo looking up at the roof of a train station. There's pigeon netting with some holes, and immediately beneath it, a locked cabinet with a sticker saying "Warning Laser hazard"

A chair with a model skeleton just about visible within it faces towards a large lake. The chair and the lake are surrounded by greenery and trees. A chair with a model skeleton sitting in it is surrounded by trees and other greenery. Beyond is very bright, light falling upon the skeleton's face.

#WrongLondon gives you the leaves of October with the #freezing winds of February. Do you even remember what #warmth feels like?

Night photo of empty pavement, large old paving stones are cracked and wet from rain, reflecting the streetlights above harshly, and scattered with fallen leaves. On one side are black railings, the other lamposts, trees and cars.

When the efforts to obliterate #graffiti turn into a form of #art themselves 😍
#StreetArt #London #photography #StreetPhotography
A long road bridge has a tall concrete barrier, in many places along it there are roughly painted rectangles in different shades of faded grey and brown - some overlapping. One has a heart faintly painted over it. Behind, there is a bright blue sky.

At first we thought it was the Smart Appliances that led the #rebellion. No one saw it coming, but the clues were all there…

A white clothes dryer is on gravel near a building's stairs. It has a white piece of paper on it saying: "FREE FREE!"

Forgotten amid the discarded and tattered scraps that #capitalism throws away - perhaps the way to fix our #politics?
#ElectoralReform #ProportionalRepresentation #photography
Looking down into a dead end outside a garrage, the cobbled road has a large number of bicycles,, their wheels, old computers, plastic crates, a wheelchair and a disco glitterball amid other junk and reubbish all stacked up on each other. Near the top of it all is a black box with a handle and the letters "PR" stencilled on its side.

Inevitably, #Walktober ended in a downpour - but at least this #duck is enjoying it! (#StreetArt from #JamesStraffon)
And I've loved the month of evening & urban #walks—keeping my legs moving through dark of the year
Thanks @gojauntly.bsky.social for the idea & #CityStrides for location inspiration!
Blurred picture of a path through a city park at night, heading towards terraced houses. There's rain falling, illuminated by a street light, which is also causing lense flare/blur from the water. Street art of a mandarin duck on a house wall. Below is a pavement wet with rain, and a large puddle flowing into a drain.

Seen at the end of another long city #walktober wander, Arsenal station's corridors always feel a mixture of terrifying and strangely hilarious (as I only visit when it's pretty empty)
#psychogeography #LondonUnderground #London #photography
A long London underground station corridor has metal bars splitting a narrower section on the left from a wider section on the right. The picture is slightly blurred with motion - the nearby bars the most.

On Wednesday I walked Aldgate to Seven Sisters, (visiting in between) close to a straight line. Someone said "Not a very pretty road though?" But watching how much #London changed around me, seeing the #StreetArt of #JimVision, #Loretto & others— that was beautiful
#Walktober #photography
Two pieces of street art by an unknown artist or artists. On a wall there is a large eye with trees reflected in its iris, and a raised eyebrow or frown expression around it. Nearby on a black door there is someone leaning aganst the door frame with a log for a head, shirtless, wearing simple trousers and boots. Street art mural by Jim Vision across the wall of an alleyway. Nearest is a bloack woman with rand and incised designs across her face, to the left there's the words "Rest In Power NASH", and another more anime style face beyond that. The alleyway continues into darkness, there's a wide city street on the other side. Street art mural by Jim Vision across the wall of an alleyway. On the left there a black woman wearing a clear helmet underwater with bubbles and lights around her. Part of a more anime pale white girl with an orange heart outlined above her forehead is also visible. Street art mural by Loretto. Famous musicians are playing together as if a single band, with "THE DREAM BAND" on a yellow background on the drums. Jimmy Hendrix is playing the electric guitar wearing a red bandanna, Keith Moon is playing the drums, Elvis Presley is dancing and singing at in the centre, Bob Dylan is playing a blue acoustic guitar and the harmonica, and John Lenon is playing the guitar and singing

You're walking through an alleyway when suddenly…a #tree leans over the fence? No, not a tree—a #dragon with wooden flesh. She asks you where her forest grove has gone—only fell asleep for a century or so. Can you help her find it?
#Walktober #psychogeography #NaturePhotography #London #photography
The trunk of a tree winds in a interesting snaking shape through a city alleyway. Leaves fill the top part of the photo. Behind the trunk are houses. Night photo.

Continuing the #halloween theme - when I stared into the darkness on a night-walk near Clissold… something stared back!

It's all getting a bit #halloween creepy around #Islington at the moment…

Baloons and sheeting is strewn on the pavement near fallen leaves. One baloon has had two eyes painted on it, making it look like a face Purple fairy lights come down from the top floor of a house to the ground, where there's a large sphere lit up as a pumpkin and other halloween decorations On top of a signpost there's a figure of a man sculpted out of yellow foam with a policeman's hat, sunglasses, a bow tie, and a red thong with a yellow smiley face at the front. Street art of David Cameron waving goodby on a wall. Just the face, shoulders and a disconnected arm are left.

How many #rivers shall I #walktober down? The answer shall always be "Another, ANOTHER!" On Sunday, it was the Duke of Northumberland - a man-made mill-stream, yet still #beautiful for that.

Whilst it's bloody awful #ReformUK are now outright saying there are too many non-white people on TV, at least Sarah Pochin gave us a new quote to meme! (But she's a massive #racist who should #resign )
I fear Captain @zackpolanski.bsky.social and @greenparty.org.uk may be our only hope.
Zack Polanski's face photoshopped onto an image from Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow - a man in a greatcoat in front of sea and clouds. On the left side of his face it says "When racism dresses itself as reform" On the right "Who can save us?" and "Woke Liberati in the World of Arty Farty"

A wise philosopher* said "The way I see it, if you want the #rainbow, you gotta put up with the #rain!" And on this #walktober wander through many woods just outside the M25 yesterday with @metwalkers.bsky.social we were graced with both (and much more beauty I'll share later)

Five people wearing bright coats and rucksacks are walking up a road with light rain falling around them. There are trees on either side. A double-rainbow is visible in a cloudy sky above several farm buildings and a marquee A double-rainbow is visible in a cloudy sky above a red brick and roofed house, seen behind a wall with a black gate.
