#picoftheday reflects a sad goodbye (for now) to my favorite person (dog), who's staying in the UK for the foreseeable. I'll miss him infinitely. #dogsofbluesky

#picoftheday sees tonight's sunset behind #BuckinghamPalace with the flags of the #UK & #USA flanking The Mall to mark the state visit of #POTUS 🇺🇲🇬🇧 #London #British #UnitedKingdom #Royal #sunset

My sassy Sphinx-fox-dickhead-dog protecting his precious ball is #picoftheday. #dogsofbluesky #dogs #dog #terrier #play

#picoftheday is this mighty assembly of windmill rotor blades ready for shipment across Europe from the port of Le Havre. How anyone can find windmills ugly is beyond me. #windmill #windpower #wind #energy #electricity #greenenergy #windturbine #sustainable #sustainability #Normandy #France #LeHavre

#picoftheday taken from Pier van Blankenberge looking up Strand beach toward the port of Zeebrugge, with Norwegian Dawn in the background. #Zeebrugge #Blanlenberge #Belgium #Cruise #Beach #Europe

One of my favorite cities today. And #picoftheday is the splendid Amsterdam Centraal 🚉 #Amsterdam #Netherlands #Travel #Train #CentraalStation #Rail #Cruise #Ijmuiden #NorwegianCruiseLine #Canals #AmsterdamCanals #Dutch

Stepped into Narnia for today's #picoftheday. A sculpture of Aslan at the CS Lewis Memorial Square in Belfast. #Aslan #Narnia #Lion #ChroniclesOfNarnia #CSLewis #Belfast #NorthernIreland #photography #sculpture #art #fiction

Took a lovely 12 mile hike in the forest around the cute Highland town of Alness, and found this pretty fairy bridge. #picoftheday #Scotland #Highlands #Alness #hiking

High winds meant an aborted shore day for Norwegian Dawn, so no adventures in Edinburgh for me (or 2,000 pissed off pensioners). Here's the closest we got, taken from the Firth of Forth. #picoftheday #cruise #norwegiancruiseline #Edinburgh #Scotland #Forth #cruising #Newhaven #weather #cruiseship

#picoftheday is a very windy departure from Southampton on Norwegian Dawn 🚢 #cruise #norwegiancruiseline #ncl #southamptpn #cruising #UK #Norwegian

Cows. Chilling in the river. End of post. #picoftheday #cows #cattle #shrewsbury #shropshire #river #severn #riversevern

No apologies for posting another pic of my child, enjoying his stay with my mom 😘 #Barney #dog #dogsofbluesky #dogs #picoftheday

It's this little dickhead's fifth birthday. As a fully grown adult I did my fatherly duty and brought him his first beer. He kinda loved it but now he stinks. Happy birthday, Barney! 🎁 #dogsofbluesky #picoftheday #dog #dogs #birthday #cake #doggo

Started 2025 meaning to post mindful pics summarizing each day. Life took a detour. Trying again. Hartlepool's Steetley Pier was built to pipe salty sea water into dolomite to make magnesia for steel furnaces. This relic of a bygone industry was the site of today's walkies #picoftheday #steelworks

For business reasons I Googled famous people whose birthdays are next week. I don't know who's been upvoting this shit but sorting the "celebs" by "most popular" is giving all kinds of fucked up vibes.

A quirky #picoftheday is three countries and two continents in one eyeline, taken from the port of #Gibraltar aboard #EmeraldPrincess. #UK to the left, #Spain to the right and #Morocco straight ahead. Also here is where the #Mediterranean Sea meets the #Atlantic Ocean ⛵ #cruising #africa #europe

Enjoyed a beautiful hill walk today, from the port at La Seyne Sur Mer, Toulon. The Mediterranean coastline is so beautiful in this part of France. #picoftheday #mediterranean #toulon #france #sea #coast #sun #cruising

A belated #picoftheday from yesterday represents the unashamedly classical nature of Italian markets, where one can find everything from Anchovies to Zebra-print dog collars and everything in between. This is the Mercato Delle Vettovaglie in #Livorno #italy #tuscany #cruising #princesscruises

For someone who travels so much, I rarely "do" touristy shit, but I enjoyed strolling around #Bordeaux this morning and snapped this pic of the Monument aux Girondins, a symbol of liberty, equality and fraternity #France #picoftheday #girondins #French #history #frenchrevolution

I'm having an atypically restful Sunday, so #picoftheday represents a sunny poolside date with #JackReacher #reacher #leechild #reading #books #sunday #pool

24 hours of intense rainfall in the Dordogne has resulted in a very swollen and moody river. But ☀️ is on its way! #picoftheday #dordogne #france #river #weather #rain #floods

#picoftheday represents the indescribable and unparalleled emotions of an introvert when hearing "cabin crew, boarding complete" accompanied by this stunning vista: #cabincrew #flightattendant #easyjet #flying #aircraft #airplane #airbus #a320 #travel #wanderlust #adventure #relief

I enjoy unexpected juxtapositional urban experiences, like meeting these frickin' gigantic pigs living their best life in Wythenshawe Park #picoftheday #pigs #pig #Manchester #farm #urbanfarm #park

Kid hates the journey but he loves the destination. Barney's train ride today will take him to his nanny Mandy's in #Shrewsbury. At least he can catch some rays on the platform while we nervously wait for the @transportforwales.bluesky.social #train at #Stockport. #picoftheday #dogsofbluesky 🐕 ❤️ 🚆

90% of the time Barney is cute and demure, but when the ball comes out he goes from darling to dickhead in about 0.4 seconds 🤣 #dogsofbluesky #picoftheday #dog #dogs #cute

My American friends will never understand this 🐟 🍟 #picoftheday #fishfriday

A Barney pic is #picoftheday. Today's walkies at Quarry Bank in Styal. #dogsofbluesky #dogs #cheshire

#picoftheday is the most royal of all Britain's Queens: the unparalleled and fucking hilarious start of stage and screen, Myra Dubois (@myradubois.bsky.social), who made my day today at the RVT (@vauxhalltavern.bsky.social). This bitch can work a crowd 💯💅🧚🫅 #drag #dragqueen #comedy #london

Today's pics of the day are a few gorgeous views from La Plagne #picoftheday #laplagne #paradiski #skiing #france

One in (maybe?) a million... The first daff I've seen in flower this year is a sign that the misery of wintertime is drawing to a close 🙏 #picoftheday #spring #daffodil #flowers #nature #uk #winter

For many reasons it's a special day. Among them: ✅ St David's Day 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 ✅ Start of Ramadan ☪️ ✅ Beginning of Spring 🌼 And, mostly importantly, the milder weather associated with "Wet Barney Season" 🐶 #picoftheday #dogsofbluesky #dogs #ramadan #ramadanmubarak #stdavid #Wales #spring #sunshine

It's not even March and I'm already obsessed with the #Eurovision song from #Australia... Will I ever stop thinking about milkshake? #EBU #EurovisionSongContest #Go-Jo #MilkshakeMan #Aus #Basel #Europe

Of all the weird things online, I simply don't understand why social media is so very heavily in its bad AI generated whale barnacle removal era? 🤔

He may be a landlubber but Barney loves the beach #picoftheday #dogs #dogsofbluesky #Whitstable #Kent #beach #sailing #rowing #fishing

Gorgeous sunset at Whitstable today. Barney loves the beach. I'd prefer if it was at least 600% warmer 🤣 #picoftheday #dogsofbluesky #dog #sunset #whitstable #kent #seafront

Walkies today manifested a chance encounter with a roadside sign profoundly resonating with the jumbled mess in my mind palace this week 😬🤣😞 What doesn't kill you makes you... #picoftheday #mindful #reflection #depression #mentalhealth

A brilliant TV show turns 40 today, but more importantly let's mark the 10th anniversary of the single most pivotal moment in the history of British broadcasting. Is tonight the night we find out how Adam is? #EastEnders40 #EastEnders #bbc #birthday #soap #howsadam #blooper #EastEndersLive #livetv

A fun morning walk with Barney at Quarry Bank, Styal. #Cheshire #England #NationalTrust #walk #dogsofbluesky #picoftheday

This cutey and I had a sleepless night as he was sick. He seems to be feelin brighter this morning, but we're aiming for a restful day to rejuvenate for a busy weekend. Get well soon, Barney! 💕💯🐶❤️ #picoftheday #dogsofbluesky #dogs #manchester #weekend

Roughly 300 people gathered in front of the old Florida Capitol in Tallahassee Feb. 5, with more gathered across the state, to protest the Trump administration, including the president’s actions against immigrants and transgender people. This story courtesy of Florida Phoenix News.

Feeling somewhat low this week, so #picoftheday is also #throwbackthursday with some of my fave people. Two pics taken a few days but 4,500 miles apart during this week three years ago when I turned 40 😍💯🧚🥳 #family #tbt #disneyworld #cocktails #florida #manchester

Give. It. To. Me. Right. Now. #JurassicWorld 🦖🦕

Enjoying a chill day with my boy, Barney #picoftheday #dogsofbluesky #dog #doglife #terrier #sunday #weekend
