Several of my photographs, some dating back to 1981 are included in a recent publication from the Athabasca University Press.

Indigenous Responses to a Changing North
edited by Kenneth L. Pratt and Scott A. Heyes. October 2022.
The AUP is an open access press based in Alberta Canada . Publications may be read on-line or downloaded for free, and are also available for purchase. This is a beautiful book to browse, read and hold in one’s hands. I feel privileged to be included. I also contributed a chapter – it’s rather esoteric reading.
The publication can be accessed here:
After some recent rain and a good breakfast, a couple of us decied to pay a visit to Madden Falls.
The walk to the top of the falls is easy enough, Getting to a good vantage point below the fals proved more interesting.
After a big scramble, and a couple of dead ends we each found a different way to a vantage point, and capture a few before the rain returned.

I've never had so many predefined tag on one of my previous work, I leave them all because I like the vision "crazy" to see a palm tree, a tree, an organic motive in this : )

Here in Barnet the average winter temperature does not usually fall below 2 degrees C (35.6 F) so the recent cold blast -5 degrees C (23 F) was a bit of a shock. This is a series of 5 photos taken in the cold weather
The two Irizar workings were replaced by buses SEe16/17 that were cascaded from withdrawn routes 507/521. SEe16 (LJ66CFP) working on route 108 towards Stratford International.
During a recent Caribbean cruise, I was treated to the sight of this dramatic sunset as our ship passed through the Bahamas. As for my photo and camera settings, based on my aperture selection, the twirly encounter was a "twist of f/8" :) Thanks for viewing!

Great to see this still in use. I had a quick chat with the owner, he said it started life as his company van when it had eight miles on the clock, then when he got made redundant he bought it off them.
Mileage now over 110,000. Inevitably it's had a few corrosion failures on its MoT history, although passes have been clear of it in recent years.
A recently transferred bus from NP is seen standing nearby Manor Park station. This bus is based at Henley Road (DS) now
Is it just me or maybe just me but I think my recent portraits has this magical feel to it. Must be because I've been doing surreal photos for quite a while it has engraved deep in my system!! lol
I'm having so much fun just being cute in front of the camera 😂 because overall they take me less than an hour from start to finish. I plan to keep on doing this until the remaining of the week so you'll see more of me being cute then we're back to me jumping around looking indescribable. 😎
Also, someone wanted to see a before/after of 410 walking on water, so I posted it here (goo.gl/CyCUcT). Check it out if you're curious how I usually put together a single photo.
Toodles ❤️
A recent, quick trip south provided the opportunity to grab a photo of this waterfall. Still a bit of fall hanging around.
From a couple of months ago... this is Interstate 10 (looking west, of course) as it's bridge across Mobile (Alabama) Bay hits the eastern shore. I was on the overpass bridge stuck in traffic. How unfortunate.
Another recent first for me, this White Necked Heron played a game of hide and seek with me in the grasses at the Heathdale - Glen Orden wetlands.
One of the recent murals called Pachamama painted by Pau Quintanajornet on the wall of the Casino along the boardwalk in Asbury Park, NJ.

So after recent forays into what can very tenuously be described as 'artsy' and here you can substitute your own alternative descriptions, possibly using the consonants s, h, t, interspersed with a couple of vowels. I thought I'd get back to more solid ground.
I say solid ground however this was taken during the Beast from the east weekend and 40mph winds made the beach feel anything but solid. I think 1.3 seconds of firmly grasping the stick friend (no, please, that's the tripod) was the longest exposure I was going to make!
Recent uploads have touched on references to Alice falling down rabbit holes, red pills, blue pills and the use of mushrooms, and I don't mean in risotto, heaven forbid, on my stream!
So, anyway I thought we'd give this track an outing. Probably one of the most iconic songs of the psychedelic early 60's, not that I actually witnessed it, I'll have you know.
Grace Slicks voice is just wonderful!
For these sixteen photos taken around Östermalm, I choose to use only the Canon 77D, and I had already decided that I would use the photos in a collage. It is a good way I think to remember the day.So this was one of those warm Summer days of late.
Le flamant rose dort debout sur une ou deux pattes, la tête cachée sous une aile. Contrairement à la plupart des oiseaux, à cause de leur taille, les flamants doivent prendre quelques mètres d'élan pour décoller des eaux. Migrateurs, ils volent en formation, en gardant cou et pattes étirés. Les battements d'ailes, puissants et réguliers, les propulsent à 60 km/h sur des étapes de plusieurs centaines de kilomètres.
Flamingos often stand on one leg, the other leg tucked beneath the body. The reason for this behaviour is not fully understood. Recent research indicates that standing on one leg may allow the birds to conserve more body heat, given that they spend a significant amount of time wading in cold water. However, the behaviour also takes place in warm water. As well as standing in the water, flamingos may stamp their webbed feet in the mud to stir up food from the bottom.

OK...FINALLY got down to taking pics of stuff I've bought over the last couple of months. Fed Glass kitchen motif bowls, 441/443 opal cinderellas, turquoise 404/403, blue stripe 403, another snowflake Spacesaver, pink stripe 401's, mini dove grey casserole 080, and a lovely blue 024 casserole. (Steph: this is the robin's egg blue casserole I posted for discussion. The pic doesn't do the colour justice!)
Recent quick trip to Portlandia for a wedding. The Japanese gardens were gorgeous albeit quite crowded
38221 has also now been repainted and goes the other way having been unbranded before but now in red front livery in preparation for route 1&2 branding. This one was always noticeable as the area around the destination display has been painted in fleet colours but it has reverted to matt black on repaint like its sisters. Another one repainted and now off the road five days after returning to service but it may just be routine servicing as it doesn't have any windsreen warning signs.
Here's a similar shot of my recent 'Misty Morning' at roughly the same angle of view ... what a difference in 2 days weather-wise !
The wind turbine - known to us locally as the 'Daffodil' - was erected in the field behind the Royal Mint.
