I've seen power users who post a lot on Bluesky forget to add alt-text. I know new habits are hard, but taking a few extra seconds to add alt-text to images increases accessibility for many other users and the site's experience overall. Please make a consistent effort to add alt-text to images.

Dinner out, seems it's difficult to apologise if something goes wrong. Ended up waiting over 40 minutes for it, and only because we asked where it was, that we got it at all! No apology, sorry to keep you waiting, nothing! Lack of apology pissed me off more than the wait. Rant over 😂

portfolio advice: print out all of your work, one project per page. spread these out on a table or on the floor. look at all the work as a whole. then make 2 piles: work you care about, and work you don't care about. the work you care about stays in, the rest does not. #art #design #portfolio

For Day 10 of #FebruARTy let's #ring in some fun together. Wait, did you hear the phone ring? It's ok, I'll get it. You keep looking at all this art; Saturn's rings, wedding rings, ring around the rosie, pocket full of posies, no ashes though, not today satan.

New people, you don't have to do the twenty hashtags and "link in bio" thing here. Say what you want to say and include the relevant link. It's fine.

“Melancholy is the happiness of being sad.” -Victor Hugo That’s me, folks. I love a beautiful sunrise, but nothing beats the mood of melancholy 🖤 #art #artphotography #mood #photography #nature #landscape #dark #trees #travel #scape #fairytale #norway #bird #scenery #landscape_photo

'Sands Of Time' A wonderful morning spent on Portstewart Strand in January 2025. The warm tones of the cloud are deceiving, it was freezing. The water moving and out during the exposure slightly adjusted those ripples in the foreground, making them shimmer. #NorthernIreland #Ethereal #Seascape

I also like the sea in its gentler moods.

US and UK folk, and I say this with love, PLEASE put alt-text on images especially when they are huge amounts of text relating to government fuckery (of which there is much). With both sides of the pond having a field day demonizing disabled folks, make sure everyone who needs to see the info does

An oldy, but still one of my favorites. And also a photo that cannot be made anymore. The tree in the front on the left broke during a storm, unfortunately. Actually, throughout the years I took quite some photos of trees that don't exist anymore... #photography #forest #trees #landscapephotography

I‘ll share this set of forest images from the archives, which remind me… that I should use my tilt-shift lens to create panoramic images more often …

Amazing weekend with short eared owls. We usually only see them in winter so most of my photos have white or blue backgrounds, but this weekend I struck gold. :) #owls #birds #canada #nature #wildlife #photography #wildlifephotography #birding #nikon #photographersunited

Let’s be real. The only reason Trump is moving his inauguration indoors is so he can claim he would have had the biggest crowds were it not for the weather. And his hair, probs.
