Bluebelly Hill. The Outwoods, Loughborough, UK - part of Charnwood Forest. Smells as good as it looks. Taken with my phone which has a crappy camera, sorry. #ForestFriday #EastCoastKin #Scape #Nature #Phonephotography

An Icon BOGOF for #WeekIforIcons. Iconic Glastonbury Tor in the background and Glastonbury Festival's iconic Pyramid Stage to the fore, albeit naked in 2021 when there wasn't a festival. Also a pic of the clothed Pyramid in full flow for living icon Paul McCartney in 2022. #AlphabetChallenge

This is my other half at Glasto '23 with her Alice in Wonderland themed hat. She made the ears, embroidered the cat and crocheted/knitted all the other ornaments. It has since expanded with more additions. #AlphabetChallenge #WeekHforHats #Glasto #FestivalHats

Terrible photo, sorry - no way to avoid the reflections I'm afraid - but great hats. Do we think that anyone who bought the hat with THAT feather might be compensating for something? Taken in Berchtesgaden, Bayern, a few years ago. #AlphabetChallenge #WeekHforHats #BayerischeKultur

"You can't go on, thinking nothing's wrong, but now Who's gonna drive you home tonight?" "Drive" by The Cars. Photo taken from a moving car somewhere near Bonn probably, maybe around 1984 - when that song was current, because that's how old I am. #AlphabetChallenge #WeekDforDrivetime #SlideFilm

Glastonbury Festival (2022 - not this year, didn't get tickets 😞) #AlphabetChallenge #WeekBforBars #Glasto

Here's a couple of things from today's walk to the Outwards near Loughborough. Don't know what the 'shroom is - but it looked pretty. As do the feathers - do the latter qualify for #WeekZforZoology? The iridescence on the crow feather is lovely. #AlphabetChallenge #TheOutwoods #Loughborough

Here's some pics from my daily - when possible - walk. The wheat was waving gently in the soft breeze, which was nice. Can someone tell me what the flower is? (My phone camera's a bit crap, sorry). #Photography #DailyWalk #Scape #Woods #Landscape #Charnwood #Outwoods #Loughborough

Nice lots of yellow on display in the walled garden at the Lost Gardens of Heligan in Cornwall, just don't ask me what any of them are. #AlphabetChallenge #WeekYforYellow

West Kirby marine lake, the Wirral, UK - scan from a slightly crappy old negative. Ilford of some sort probably, maybe Fujifilm. #HumansOfBluesky #streetphotography #photography #urbangaze #EastCoastKin #classicmono #film

Dancers in FuXing Park, Shanghai. Who needs a partner? Just get out there and strut your stuff! #AlphabetChallenge #WeekXforXs #StreetPhotography

Jolly green giant? Lost Gardens of Heligan, Cornwall - we found them, there's signposts to them apart from anything. #AlphabetChallenge #WeekWforWacky

One from the Zwerglgarten - Dwarf Garden - in Salzburg. Dating back to the 17th century and to be found in the Mirabell Gardens. In the 1600's Dwarf Gardens were what every fashionable Prince Archbishop wanted apparently. This dude is a gardener. #AlphabetChallenge #WeekWforWacky #Salzburg

Street art installation in Paris. Bit worse for wear - presumably, it had a nose to start with but still good for #WeekWforWacky I think. #AlphabetChallenge #StreetArt #Paris

5 cats carved into a Shanghai temple roof - this type of upwardly curved roof is called FeiYan apparently - flying eaves. #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekVforFive

#AdoorableThursday - in the Great Mosque of Xi'an #photography #EastCoastKin #Monochrome

Pic 1 is a panorama shot of the stone circle at #WorthyFarm - home of Glastonbury festival. Taken in 2021 when there wasn't a festival but there was some camping going on. The first trailer in the gap in the hedge is no. 5 - second pic confirms. #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekVforFive #Glasto

St Patrick's, 5th Avenue, NYC - tops of spires caught in the sun. #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekVforFive

A 14th century roof boss from the east side of Norwich Cathedral cloisters depicting the Harrowing of Hell - when Jesus retrieved righteous souls from hell. I'm not religious but do like ecclesiastical buildings and art. 5 souls being retrieved here, lucky! #AlphabetChallenge #WeekVforFive #Norwich

Wind's up, surf's up - kite surfers at Perranporth beach, Cornwall. #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekUforUp #Cornwall

View from a porthole on a Liberty Island/Ellis Island ferry, NYC. #WindowsonWednesday #Photography #Monochrome

A view from up a Bavarian mountain. #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekUforUp

This individual had done the up & was beginning the down - but was still relatively speaking up. Bavarian Alps. #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekUforUp

If you get caught out by the tide coming up while you're crossing the causeway to Lindisfarne Island, climb up the steps into the shelter & make yourself comfortable because you'll be there for a while. #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekUforUp #ClassicMonochrome

Sir John Betjeman at 9.30. Taken a St Pancras station a decade ago - time flies. #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekTforTime

Sundial in Salzburg. Looks to be about 2.30 - which from the photo info appears to be the right time. #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekTforTime #Monochrome

Old #cityscape slide photo from Prague, 1987. Camera would have been my old Pentax ME Super, film - don't know but probably Ektachrome. #EastCoastKin #photography #Art #PhotographersUnited#PhotographersofBluesky #ArtChallenges #Prague

"All you that do this pass bye Remember death for you must dye As you are now even so was I And as I am so shall you be Thomas Gooding here do staye Wayting for God's judgement day." Mr Gooding was buried upright in Norwich Cathedral in 1600. The passage of time. #AlphabetChallenge #WeekTforTime

What time is it? About 10 past a bit cloudy. Sundial in Eyam, Derbyshire - which looks like the sundial equivalent of a moon phase watch with extra dials & can tell the time in 24 time zones. Unless it's a bit cloudy... #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekTforTime #Monochrome

Looks like rain o'clock - tho' I don't think it did actually rain - time was 11.12 a.m according the church clock. Oberammergau, Bavaria. Some nice Luftmalerei on the closer building. #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekTforTime #Bavaria

This is my other 1/2's hand - we were staying near Skenfrith, Wales & the path for our walk went thru' a cornfield. I said "remember the cornfield scene in Gladiator?" Only she had a watch on rather than a wrist guard. It was 3.10. #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekTforTime #Monochrome

Him time. Jardin du Luxembourg, Paris. #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekTforTime #Paris #StreetPhotography

These lines are part of the Heytor Granite Tramway - made of granite & used to transport granite from Heytor Down, Dartmoor, Devon, UK to the Stover canal. In use from 1820 to 1858. #Photography #BlueSkyArtShow #Lines #EastCoastKin #Monochrome #Devon

Lines - tour Effeil, Paris. #Photography #BlueSkyArtShow #Lines #EastCoastKin #Paris

The Obersee, Bavaria - like a mirror - hard to tell where the land stops and the reflection starts. #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekSforSilver #BayerischeAlpen

Silver sea and lone paddle boarder. Marazion beach, Cornwall. #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekSforSilver

"Dear Diary - today I bought something nice from Zadig & Voltaire & then I had a coffee in Borough Market." Old pic from the Monmouth Coffee Co.. When you didn't have to queue to get in. Great coffee - hope it still is. #Photography #StreetPhotography #Filmsnotdead #Monchrome #EastCoastKin

When one has walked along the Trevillet, one reaches St Nectan's Glen and one sits for a suitable length of time to admire the beauty and absorb the tranquility of the place. #Photography #Cornwall #WaterfallWednesday #StNectansGlen

It's big and it's silver, seen from the Brooklyn Bridge, NYC. Don't know what it is but it prob costs a lot to live in it. Choice of colour or b&w. #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekSforSilver #NYC #Monochrome

Silver birch (maybe) plus addition at Stone Lane Gardens, Devon. A birch tree specialist and sculpture garden - we have a beautiful young white birch in our garden which came from them. Don't know the artist, sorry. #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekSforSilver

Silver sea at Chapel Porth beach, Cornwall. Struggling a bit for silver but got one or two. #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekSforSilver #Cornwall

This is Bradgate Park just outside Leicester, UK. A significant chunk of Leicester folk head here on nice days to enjoy the stunning scenery. #Photography #ClassicMonochrome #EastCoastKin #PhotographersUnited #PhotographersOfBluesky #Stunday

Sheep road on Dartmoor, Devon. This may well have been part of the Rattlebrook Peat Railway which took peat from the moor to Bridestowe Station in the 1870's, as we were walking a lot of the route that day. B&w or colour? #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekRforRoads #ClassicMonochrome #Sheep

Roads need bridges when they meet water - like this one: Fye Bridge in Norwich, which carries Fye Bridge Rd. over the Wensum. The Ribs of Beef is on one side and the Mischief Tavern is on the other side. Old slide recent scan. #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekRforRoads #SlideFilm #Norwich

Love a road were the trees meet overhead and turn it into a tunnel. This one's in Devon, near Lydford. #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekRforRoads #Monochrome #Devon

This is a repost - but it's a good one for #WeekRforRoads: A road near Lydford, Devon where you could drive at the national speed limit if you could actually drive on it- but you can't as it's not suitable for motor vehicles 🤷 #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #Monochrome #Devon

Here's a view up 10th Avenue from the High Line in Chelsea, NYC. #Photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekRforRoads #NYC

#WaterfallWednesday - still going up the Trevillet on the way to St Nectan's Glen. #Photography #Cornwall #EastCoastKin
