Hello Blueskiers (is that what we are calling ourselves?)
Here’s some of my photography work over the last few years (probably a little longer now, time seems to be getting quicker), shot on one Fuji or another.
Please feel to connect

Astronomers made a truly mind-boggling discovery using the JWST:
A runaway super-massive black hole, rocketing through space at a staggering 1,000 km/s, leaving a 200,000 light-year-long tail in its wake in which gas is accumulating and triggering star formation.

James Webb Space Telescope confirms 1st 'runaway' supermassive black hole rocketing through home galaxy at 2.2 million mph: 'It boggles the mind!'
"The forces that are needed to dislodge such a massive black hole from its home are enormous."

I only dipped into watching some of the various Wallace and Gromit films on tv this year but the more I watch the more I’m convinced it’s man kinds greatest achievement. Even watching for 2 minutes you come away getting something joyous out of it.

My New Year’s resolution wants to not think “oh fuck off” to pretty much everything. But I have my doubts that’s is achievable.

Guess influencers had a nice day out at the boxing and rich people mingled together looking very glamorous.

Encouraging signs for us. Xavi and Kudus having an affect on the game. Look much better as an attacking unit the last two games. Feels a bit like Archie Gray gives us a bit more in midfield allowing us to play a bit.

The Tasselled Wobbegong is a master of disguise that can eat a fish almost as big as itself in one gulp. It's classified as a shark, but when it lays on the sea floor it looks like a harmless rug if you manage to see it. But with powerful jaws and sharp teeth they are no fish to mess with.

Woke up expecting the match to be over, only to be surprised that England hadn’t lost any wickets. Turns on TV. Lose four wickets in just as many minutes. Can’t help but take this personally.

Honestly it’ll be great if teams boycotted the World Cup and play our unofficial World Cup. Donate the proceeds to charity. Fuck FIFA.

Blatter, Russia, Qatar, Trump, Infantino. When are we going to call it a day on FIFA?

We really need a metronome type player in our midfield to keep things moving. All of our midfielders are ball carriers. Don’t know whether it’s something that Bergvall can do. Find the whole team moves, presses and pass better with one in.

Arteta & Howe could have been sacked at several opportunities. Glasner didn’t win any of his opening 8. Amorim looks like he could turn it around. Frank himself only won 1 of his opening 10 games at Brentford. Sometimes patience brings rewards. He is a good coach, and that doesn’t change night.

Some recent photographs I’ve made. All in Cornwall and shot in one Fuji or another.

Illegal migration isn't tearing this country apart, but our obsession with it is. It's an obsession fuelled by our media and politicians. Both profit from blowing the problem out of all proportion. It's been happening for decades, but never more so than now

Once the Trump Epstein story blows open I think we are going to witness a defining moment of our time. The story will not be just about Trump but the power, abuse and corruption of people in power all over the world. It’s going to be far reaching and shake people’s trust in pretty much everything.

Do we need to exorcise Darren Anderton or something? Next up Wilson Odobert breaks ankle by slipping on a tube of toothpaste.

Van de Ven hanging it in the Louvre twice in 6 months. Incredible player. (As long as he doesn’t get stolen)

A bit late to the party but Strange New Worlds is great. A massive return to form (alongside Lower Decks). For one reason or another I just put off watching it (life, time, years of middling trek) but Spock Body swap, Captain Oates reference, banger of a last episode of the season. Chef kiss.

Taking a break and sat at the Forum of Caesar. Birds chirping, occasional rumble of traffic and the murmur of conversations of many different languages whilst surrounded by over two millennia worth of history. Pretty surreal to be honest .

Not a late night kick off at White Hart Lane but a 7am walk to St Peter’s Basilica.

Rome is great. It’s one massive archeological site. Can’t walk five yards without seeing something fascinating. Having said that it’s heaving, surprised the Romans aren’t revolting like the Catalonians. People everywhere.

Good win that. Leeds were pretty good today for 60-70 minutes playing with a lot of physicality and intensity. Even first half but second half stepped it up and couldn’t really get near us. Last 10 was just that standard nervy 1up last 10 minutes.
