This is the first photo that I've uploaded in 2025. It is looking up from the base of the stone spiral staircase at the Iglesia de Santa Catalina. A gothic church in Valencia, Spain.

I have no idea what the future will bring, or what I'll be posting on Flickr this year, but I thought this would be an appropriate image in which to start the year.
This is taken looking up from the base of a stone spiral staircase. A gothic church in Valencia, Spain.

A print of this image, on giclee paper in a frame sized 30 x 40 cms, appeared in two exhibitions in Hebden Bridge, West Yorkshire, during 2024.

I hate it when I see writings and engravings on tree trunks. How will you feel if someone engraved their names or memories on your bodies!

Stopped for lunch at Lake Davis, CA. while meandering off the pavement and found this scene most pleasant while eating before meandering up into the yonder hills.
the sign says stop. the pavement says otherwise. the shadow has already decided. nobody is asking permission.
Today is International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women ...

Previously unpublished shot from September 2020.
Mask up - stop the spread. Preventing or limiting spread of an airborne virus is not rocket science. Cover your mouth and nose with a suitable mask in enclosed public spaces.
While this should have been the case already in the UK, during this period of accepting 1000 deaths per week, it is most definitely the case now with the unknown risk that the Omicron variant presents.
Better to over-react protectively and relax later than to become overwhelmed by not reacting enough. Stay safe everyone. This is not just about life and death, this is also about long-term debilitating disease, the burden of which will be enormous before this is all through.

Self-portrait abstract captured in Glasgow, Scotland.
Yes those are my nicked and coffee splashed walking boots - perfectly comfortable for street photography and nicely supportive of my dodgy ankle. Captured in August 2020 with 'Social Distance' markings sprayed outside of a branded store on Buchanan Street - no prizes for guessing the brand!
IMPORTANT:
If you are one of the people out there who look at 'underlying health conditions' in people dying from Covid-19 and think that those people don't matter then please feel free to unfollow me on Flickr as I will not enter into a discussion with you about this subject.
I just saw a headline in the Telegraph, a UK Newspaper sometimes referred to as the 'Torygraph', proudly boasting that only 6 'healthy' UK children have died from Covid-19. This comes on the day when the 110th child has died in the UK from Covid-19 or the complications of Covid-19. That headline implies that the other 104 children's lives meant nothing because they had 'underlying health conditions'.
Did you know that the term 'underlying health conditions' refers as much to cancer as it does to an ingrown toenail. It could be a child with ADHD, a child with asthma, a child with a now-treated congenital heart defect, a child with diabetes or any other disease. There is nothing to say that those children wouldn't live long and fulfilling lives contributing to society.
Over 2/3 of those 110 deaths have occurred since September when schools returned with no mandatory masks, distancing, ventilation policy and no vaccination programme effectively in place.
I know some of you hate it when I get political but I am not generally political in a partisan sense here, for me it is always about the humanity or lack thereof that brings me to comment.
The shameful inhumanity of that Telegraph headline and anyone who thinks along the same lines is beyond words. I have 3 of the top 4 co-morbidities for Covid-19. I have numerous underlying health conditions. I developed them as a direct result of working to help others. My life is worth no less because of them and I could, hopefully, go on to live many more decades yet.
We are one species on one tiny blue planet in the vastness of space. It's about time we worked together rather than fought against each other. Stay safe my Flickr friends.
