It's the opening day of The Glasgow Gallery of Photography Monochrome exhibition and I'm highly chuffed that one of my images is in there - Slow death in the lee of the hill. Visit, and enjoy! B&W photography on film 📷 Nikon F4 🎞️ Ilford Delta Pro 400 #believeinfilm #fridayfavourites #ilfordphoto

If I didn’t have the super Pentax 17 with me that day when we walked to the pub from our campsite I wouldn’t have been able to make these three side by side frames of this beautiful tree and its root system. @ilfordphoto.com #HP5 #MGPearl #believeinfilm #filmphotography

I'm kicking myself as I didn't check what tree this was. However, all of these webs were at the ends of branches, which (a quick search) would suggest fall web-worm, just at the wrong time of year. Anyone know what is going on here?

Another exciting opportunity to join Forestry England’s growing historic environment team, this time supporting forests and heritage across South England. A brilliant role at the intersection of archaeology, nature recovery and sustainable land management. careers.forestryengland.uk/jobs/job/His...

“Helsinki hasn’t registered a single traffic-related fatality in the past year…Citing data that shows the risk of pedestrian fatality is cut in half by reducing a car’s speed from 40 to 30km/hr, city officials imposed the lower limit in most of Helsinki’s residential areas and city center in 2021.”

It's the colours that do it for me this time of year. #my400

In a sensible world, David Attenborough should be the richest person alive. He has worked consistently for 79 years. He has been consistently successful in bringing joy, knowledge, and an understanding of worlds we may never encounter, to millions.

Spiralling global temperatures (1850-2026) It is exactly 10 years since I first put this animated graphic of changes in global temperature online. #ClimateSpiral It instantly went viral. People watched it over and over again. It still offers the power to shock a decade on.

Okay, this is cool. I'm going to link to the article Petapixel did about it because they have some nice background information, but really, just watch the film. Someone made a short film about Blue Moon in Portland. Shot on 16mm, no sync sound, and it's brilliant. And there's a Kodak Medalist @ 3:20

Fwiw I don't think protests should be banned. If people are doing illegal things on them they should be arrested under existed laws. Otherwise it's important to protect free speech.

I spent years working in the Lakes, and this piece is a real reflection of the people, places and difficulties that the visitors rarely comprehend. (Also, a good reminder to always choose the local brew, and eschew the places that don't keep one on tap!)

In case anyone doesn't know, the trichrome process involves taking three photos on b&w film, through three coloured filters, then combining them. It is really difficult to do, and astonishingly difficult to do this well!

Art heist alert! My framed drawing Akron Ladders III was stolen from a gallery in East Sussex. It’s a very distinctive drawing that was shown in the RA Summer Exhibition 2024. Let me know if you spot it anywhere. It’s hard enough being an artist at the moment without having to deal with thievery.

1/ Why is atmospheric CO₂ accelerating faster than fossil fuel emissions are growing? The answer is buried in the data, and it's more worrying than most people realise. A thread. 🧵👇

Discworld QOTD, from Feet of Clay

This is quite an impressive rebuttal of some of the most insidious claims made by kleptocrats the world over to convince people and, more importantly, governments that taking responsible action is not urgent. I really hope that this hedge fund manager is being hit hard by the current crisis.

Despite being of an age, this completely passed me by at the time but between 1987 and 1988 Fisher Price produced a camcorder which recorded black and white video onto STANDARD AUDIO CASSETTES! I just saw some example footage and now I REALLY want one... museumoffailure.com/exhibition/f...

Something that, for all its faults, pre-privatisation Royal Mail managed to do pretty well for decades, and at substantially lower cost. It's almost as if selling out essential national services to private equity is a massively shit idea... www.theguardian.com/business/202...

"The church has a duty to protect the free practice of all faiths in this country" (Queen Elizabeth II, 2012). It's good to see the Bishop of Kirkstall rising to that call, reminding Nick Timothy that "Islamophobia is not a Christian value or Christian virtue". www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

It's a good job I labelled everything last autumn, isn't it?

Robert documented teams from South Dartmoor College training for Ten Tors between 2017 and 2020 and produced four separate series of images during this period, all of which can be found on his website: www.robertdarch.com/ten-tors

1/ Experts issued some pretty dire warnings about Trumpian tariffs and Brexit, and the result was not nearly as bad as it could have been. Now they're issuing dire warnings about Iran. A much smarter friend asked me how I was thinking about the difference. My short answer: control.

Sometimes all you have to hold on to is that you're not the only one feeling this way.

Got dragged to a Bears in Trees gig by the teenager. At one point, the lead singer was playing a flute solo, while two audience members played MarioKart Wii onstage on a portable CRT telly. The audience knew all the lyrics, even to the song released only two days before. The kids really are alright.

and you won't be able to see that that's what's happening. the park should not be full of broken glass. you can't just ban children from the play area and call the problem solved. 1) they now have no play area 2) everyone else is still getting cut to ribbons

Excuse my French, but...shitting hell.
