I find it next to impossible to not impose an unconventional face into this scene. Clearly this is a one-eyed creature trying to say something to us. #photography #Berlin #Germany #abstract #abstractPhotography #blackAndWhite

At the edge of the lake in Stadtpark Lichtenberg, the water thawed enough to crack and fragment before refreezing - and in the process caught the previous fractured segments in a sturdier hold. #photography #abstract #icePhotos #winter #macro

A very beautiful oleander in bloom on Philopappou Hill in Athens where I spent a beautiful late afternoon in quiet contemplation following the funeral of my aunt Eleni. #photography #flowers #bloomscrolling #flora #nature #contemplation #life #Greece #Athens

An abundance of horizontal lines criss-cross this image: power, public transport, construction, light, air travel. #photography #blackAndWhite #urban #cityAndArchitecture #landscape

It is always a joy to see a pair of mandarin ducks in Berlin. Whilst there is a misconception that they mate for life, they're actually 'seasonal monogamists'. #photography #animals #wildlife #nature #birding #Berlin #Germany

Abul Mogard's disembodied arm pokes into the shot to make an adjustment to his modular setup whilst an out of focus Rafael Anton Irisarri performs alongside him in the background. #photography #music #blackAndWhite #people #Berlin #Germany #performingArts

So many lines leading our eyes to nowhere. I like how every 5th window frame lines up with vertically with the wall slabs. If the thumbnail for this is horizontal, please click through to see the full vertical image! #photography #abstract #Berlin #Germany #architecture #street #ubran

Slightly different from the previous "Frozen Moments" photos, this one was captured in the wild - a macro close up of some enormous swathes of ice that were stacked along the banks of the Wisła in winter. #photography #abstract #macro #texture #Poland #Płock

A vividly purple and white garden phlox jumps out from its blurry green background, dainty petals folding back, creating a leading line effect into the centre. #photography #bloomscrolling #macro #flora #flowers #nature #Berlin #Germany

It seems @firefox.com **really** wants me to know about their VPN... (seen after updating to 151.0.2 (aarch64))

The Wisła in Płock shows a nearly glassy surface, mirroring the rich blue winter sky above. A passer-by stands at the end of the pier admiring the calm scene as two coots paddle off into the middle of the river, leaving a small V of ripples in their wake #photography #landscape #Poland #Płock #A7C2

While this may not be mostly glamorously titled beetle, the Spring Dung Beetle is an absolute beauty to behold - shining iridescent purple and blue hues ensure that you can't miss this little beetle in amongst the dead winter leaf litter. #photography #insect #wildlife #nature #Germany #Berlin

The ever-excellent DJ, Marylou, performing at the Ultrabooth event at Panke in Berlin. The lighting was pretty dark, so it's a bit grainy, but you can just about spot Robert Henke, aka Monolake, in the background admiring the skills on display. #photography #music #Berlin #Germany #performingArts

A sharply cutting stencilled graffiti found on a small street in Mallorca. The question of over-tourism in Mallorca has been a highly contentious one over the past years. #photography #street #urban #graffiti #Mallorca #Spain #overtourism

I can picture the real estate listing now, "Bright and spacious with an airy feel". This photo shows a section of the skeleton of the Hammelsauktionshalle in Blankensteinpark. #photography #abstract #Berlin #street #Germany #architecture #city #urban #RX100-V

An absolute plethora of asymmetrical shapes and textures, colours and lighting. There's so little repetition in this building that it seems amazing that anyone designed it this way. Click through to see the full image #photography #abstract #Berlin #Germany #architecture #urban #city #street

Out now! Link in bio. HEATSINK : GOD IS A PIECE OF HARDWARE This is the debut release from Heatsink; the new hardware-driven alias of Faoi Thalamh Records founder, Ádhamh. The 4-track EP is a sonic exploration of silicon-based spirituality and the emerging mythologies of the digital age. 1/3

Another shitty application season is coming to a close and once again I don’t think I’ll have a tenure-track job or postdoc for next year. Maybe time to figure out another plan. In the meantime, additional paid subs would be a big help. Thanks for Listening. acloserlisten.substack.com

One of my favourite flowers - the stunning echinacea. Every time I see them I'm blow away by their beauty. Good work nature 👍 #photography #bloomscrolling #nature #flowers #flora #Berlin #Germany #colour #macro

Contrails soar above Berlin, popping out from a few low clouds lit up by winter light, luminescent in dusty yellows warming into almost orange. Make sure to click through to see the full image - the preview is probably cropped! #photography #landscape #Berlin #Germany #eveningSky #sunset

I forgot that I had a second photo of this beautiful sand lizard I saw in Jelenin in Poland. It had ventured out a bit more from its hiding spot in a log pile as I stood as still as possible nearby watching it. #wildlife #nature #photography #animals #lizards #Poland #Jelenin #RX10IV

The winter light was low as we approached the shortest day of the year and I loved the contrast of the golden light reflecting off the damp paving slabs and the person walking off along this highlighted path. #photography #street #Berlin #Germany #streetPhotography #urban #winter #people #citylife

A typical small street in Palma. There's something very photogenic about the city that led me to taking a lot of photos - no doubt something to do with the warm weather, blue skies, strong light, winding streets. Click through to see full image #photography #Spain #Mallorca #street #architecture

A photo can give way from documentary tool to abstract renderer, and here the blurring of shape and colour is something I find strangely satisfying. Perhaps representative of the otherness of the things we see. #photography #abstract #Berlin #Germany #blur #people #artWeek

Another macro cross section from a much larger art work. I love the texture here, slightly rippling, dappled, occasional whorls. Like the surface of a lake, frozen in a moment. #abstract #photography #macro #Berlin #Germany #artweek #texture

I love how this vivacious dahlia seems to be completely taking over the scene, making the background seem wholly insignificant. #flowers #bloomscrolling #pink #dahlia #summer #sun #Berlin #Germany #nature #floral

I love the seemingly random intertwining of these branches and, in contrast to the dark shadows, the patches of bark that are lit up by a low wintery sun. This shot was taken in Forckenbeckplatz in Berlin's Samariterkiez. #photography #landscape #Berlin #Germany #nature #winter

Tonight's inflight entertainers... Thanks for listening. We are back Wednesday, June 10th.

This dragonfly seems to have done very well for itself with a decent meal. Lucky for me too, as it meant this quick mover stood still for a few moments - giving me time to line up a shot. #photography #macro #insects #nature #wildlife #rx10iv #Poland

Multiple layers of graffiti adorn a wall in and around an external light which has obviously proven itself to be very good at attracting dinner for a resident spider whose web is strategically placed just under the bright glow. #photography #street #Berlin #Germany #graffiti #urban

Our last day in Dresden arrived and we got out to Neustadt train station with plenty of time to spare. Most of it I spent enjoying the architecture of the space. #photography #Dresden #Germany #cityAndArchitecture #street #travel

I found this ceiling so fascinating to look at - it has the initial impression of being symmetrical, but I think ultimately has more impact because it's not quite a mirror image. #photography #abstract #abstractPhotography #Berlin  #Germany #geometric

At an exhibition in the Alfred Ehrhardt Foundation, the late afternoon light came strong through the window into a subdued and dim space. It seemed an apt accompaniment to the delicate exhibition on display. #photography #abstract #berlin #germany #art

There's something about this giant mushroom looming out from behind unfocused foliage that makes me think of realisation dawning that some huge beast is towering over - from an ants perspective! It was a huge mushroom though, the size of my hand #schroomscrolling #fungi #Poland #nature #photography

The lush greens of nature looking as though, given enough time, they will slowly take over the manmade objects. The contrasting colours of the containers and the graffiti. The rust details in the containers being picked up by the Trabants, slowly decaying. #Berlin #Germany #landscape #abandoned

This beautiful bird had found a good lookout spot on top of a beach tent and was surveying all around waiting for a human to accidentally drop a tasty snack. #birds #birding #nature #wildlife #animals #Spain #Mallorca #audouin

Late at night, outside Studio dB in Berlin, a security light illuminates an unusual scene. Amassed foliage from plants seems to entirely block access to an external metal staircase which leads to what we do not know. Click through to see the full image. #photography #Berlin #Germany #street #night

Barges sit quietly on Dresden's Elbe riverfront. The sky above, mostly clear except for some wispy cloud cover near the horizon, is fresh blue. The clouds are treated to a colouring lesson by the winter sun, low in the sky due to the short winter days #photography #Dresden #Germany #cityscape

An explosion of droplets radiates out from the centre. Different densities and aerations capture and reflect light in different ways, yielding a cross-section of chaos that has been frozen in a specific moment in time. #photography #abstract #blackAndWhite #Berlin #rx10iv

Definitely one of the more trippy wall coverings I've come across - in the basement of the Neue Nationalgalerie in Berlin there's a cafè, and it's walls are entirely covered with this, I suppose it's a tile. #photography #Berlin #Germany #tiles #abstract #nationalgalerie #illusory

I'm pretty sure this is a rose, but specifically which rose I have no idea! There are over 300 species of rose, so I decided to not feel too bad about being unsure which one this is! #photography #Berlin #Germany #flora #bloomscrolling #flower #blossom #nature

I can't help myself, but I keep seeing a bird in the negative space between the trees. Personally it's reminding me of the Eurasian Hoopoe, but perhaps that's taking the pattern recognition a bit too far :D #photography #nature #patternRecognition #landscape #Berlin #Germany #negativeSpace

Photo of the Eurasian Hoopoe, a beautiful species of Upupa. Apparently their call sounds like "oop-oop-oop", hence the name I guess! They can also raise their crowning feathers, making them look even more spectacular. #photography #wildlife #nature #birds #birding #Spain #Mallorca

Another shot from the excellent BYOB (bring your own beamer) even in Berlin last year. Kühlhaus, a quintessentially Berlin venue, was transformed with unique visuals around every corner and on pretty much every surface imaginable. #photography #PerformingArts #Berlin #Germany #projections #videoArt

This beautiful building, called the Neustädter Markthalle, was originally opened in 1899! I love the mid-morning low light catching the curving ceiling. #photography #Germany #Dresden #architecture #LowLight #building #markets

In a transitional space from one area of Hamburger Bahnhof to the next, this hallway did not make a huge amount of sense from an architectural point of view. But it did provide some interesting angles to photography. #photography #Berlin #Germany #abstract #architecture #HamburgerBahnhof #ArtMuseum

This photo was taken while I was inside a multi-part sculpture which stood outside the modern art museum in Palma, Mallorca. By moving around you could create a wide variety of shapes from the brightly lit world beyond the shade. #photography #abstract #negativeSpace #shapes #Spain #Mallorca

A cluster of mushrooms spring up from a thin layer of moss which sits atop all that remains of a tree - the first step towards a more complete takeover of the space. Spotted in Grünewald, a stunning and huge park in Berlin. #photography #schroomscrolling #fungi #berlin #Germany #moss #nature
