I try not to waste time debating ignorance or stupidity. Here for general nonsense, photography, keeping up to date on things, science/tech, covid info 😷 And ALL nature related stuff. 🌲🌳🍄🦊 Photos are my own.

A moody blue, white, and orange autumn sky after sunset. Reflected in the water. With tree silhouettes on the horizon also reflected in the water. Also framed by silhouettes of trees.

A double rainbow in the background with an old church and graveyard in the mid ground, and a stone wall with autumn leaves in front of it in the foreground. The sky is thick and heavy with cloud.

While looking through old photos I came upon my greatest growing achievement from a few years back. The sadness I felt at not being able to preserve this magnificent specimen...
Nothing quite like homegrown

🍂 Autumn... Seems like an early one this year. Even the blackberries are going to have a quick season.

A brown and dark orange leaf hanging by a cobweb. Surrounded with dark green lush leaves. And a strong bokeh in the background framing it.

Looking over a river, with green trees on the far bank. And trees overhanging at the top of the photo. A slight ripple in the water near the bottom. The trees on the far bank are reflected in the water.

I received my order today from the absolute legend @ciaraioch.bsky.social I can already feel my enemies faltering. Go buy for yourself, for your loved ones, pets are fans too. Sure feck it, buy for the people you hate too. Just don't tell them you did, they'll be extra confused!

For those unfamiliar with my talented kitchen roll holder Bear Bear. Aside from doing a stellar job in the kitchen & providing security. Bear Bear really takes holidays seriously. Unfortunately with FFFG likely to be back in again. He's had to take a second job. Bear Bearudolph will be helping Santy
A kitchen roll holder in the shape of a bear that has been altered to make it look like a cartoon reindeer. I call him Bear Bearudolph. On the lower end of the screen is the kitchen towel. In the background is a plain wall and net curtain. A kitchen roll holder in the shape of a bear.
