"Alright. Norbot, make Gromit's garden neat and tidy." ~ "Neat and tidy. Yes, Mr. Wallace." • All shot using real lighting, figures and miniature sets. I hand sculpted the Norbot figure and painted him up just in case you were wondering. • #photography

Happy New Year, friends! Remember: That which does not kill us wins reelection and tries again. Be vigilant and keep a good humor about your every day and spread laughter and good will. It’s the best inoculation against autocracy and idiocy.

So the world’s richest man, who grew up under apartheid in South Africa and now pulls the mentally deteriorating incoming U.S. president’s strings, has written an op-ed urging Germans to elect a neo-Nazi government. Got that?

It’s one of my revised bin days tomorrow. Recycling - a big one. I’m pumped. I’m ready. I’m full of adrenaline. I won’t sleep tonight.

GLASGOW SUBWAY 🚇 PHOTO / 1 Photography thread of the 3rd oldest underground railway in the world which now has futuristic trains travelling along the tracks. I'll add to this over time COWCADDENS 2 Stadler trains wait on the pale greenish platform More pics shop.tubemapper.com/Glasgow-Subw... 😀

🦀 Many northern coastal towns are in decline due to loss of industry, poor investment and policy imbalances unlike thriving southern resorts.

Nur Europa ist die Zukunft!

🎁 Steve is trying his best this Christmas...

I went to see a brilliant reimagining of Alice in Wonderland at the Brixton House. Instead of Wonderland, everything occurs at Brixton Station on the London Underground. I'll make a video about this later, but here's me sitting in the Queens roundel throne Showing until Jan 4th

Just a #cryptid cryptiding

Typical....

The Christmas tree has arrived on Trafalgar Square! It's a gift to the people of London from the people of Oslo. A tree has been given annually since 1947. Thank you our Norwegian friends 🇳🇴 🎄

You know how sometimes you see things that are so perfect for you, you have to buy it? That was me when I saw this by @mooseallain.bsky.social because many, many moons ago, my husband did, in fact, carve my name on a park bench with a penknife

This December, we’re taking you behind the scenes on some of our favourite 2024 shoots. Stay tuned for daily updates – from famous faces (and their pawsome assistants) and plenty of gorgeous garden highlights. Photo: Jason Ingram

Retweet if you forgot these aren’t tweets!

Bike toilets? Whatever next?!

Wow. Here is one to brighten up your morning. The first images of the restored interior of Notre Dame cathedral. Breathtaking. In just five years France did it

Hey, the clips here seem to be quite limited time-wise so I’m also over in Instagram posting stand-up videos, as @thedaraobriain

Funny because true.

Have seen a few references to ‘elf on the shelf’… Well, not for me, compadre! I give you: Smurf sous un œuf ! (What do you mean, it’s not festive? Who cares? I am utterly bereft of fucķs to give 😁) Happy random day of the year to you all 🤓

My pal @pjrfoto.bsky.social helping me to advertise my new venue. Only accessible to the very coolest cats in town...

That’s a wrap on volume 2 of the Beatles songs as old, mid century film posters series. Here’s a recap of all of volumes 1 and 2 for anyone that missed them. Prints are available over on my website.

Trump’s proposed #tariffs could make imported goods more expensive for US businesses and citizens. While the US government collects the tariff revenue, consumers face higher prices, leading to inflation and fewer jobs. #Trump @nwbylines.bsky.social @bylinesnetwork.bsky.social https://bit.ly/3ZhMhtf

On a wet and windy Saturday afternoon, @jaynedavids.bsky.social and I made this about making videos more accessible. It's often overlooked when creating videos, particularly for social media. Anyway, Jayne explains... www.linkedin.com/posts/jayned...

What would we do without you, Steve?

They say #Bluesky is a hive of Marxists. And I must confess: I am one of them.

Is it just me or does this feel like the start of Russian attacks in the UK? #Russia

You can tell A LOT about a TV news photog by glancing in their company car... A tattered copy of Voltaire’s ‘La Henriade’? Too much time on their hands. Neat as a pin? I don’t trust ‘em. Lots of gear, press passes and fast food bags? Ah yes, exactly as nature intended...

The "bluesky is an echo chamber" think pieces that keep popping up really tickle me because they show how certain people genuinely believe social media should be for debating and arguing and not talking about the things that make you happy and sharing art with the world.

@bsky.app Hi. Maybe I’m missing a trick, but having turned notifications on I am only receiving follows, likes and direct replies but not general posts by people I follow. Is there any way to get these posts as well? Thanks.

The news says today is a “Multi-Hazard Weather Event”. I’m old enough to remember when we’d just use the shortened version: “wet and windy”
