Absolutely stunning!

Tuesdays Red Light #ireland

@pattieogreen.bsky.social Hi Paule - glad you liked my posts😊 Just looked at your timeline and thought you might like Dr Catherine Kelly’s book Blue Spaces - so thought would mention it. She isn’t on Blue Sky but you can find the book if you Google.

Sunset reflections at low tide by the Donut Groyne in Brighton

Hope you all had a great #InternationalWomensDay today - for the @seabirdscic.bsky.social Saturday things went swimmingly well with Mme Mer in boisterous form and lovely sun to warm us up after celebrating in the chilly water and icy wind 🌊🌞🥰

These are stunning! Winners in my book😊

Am sure @panophotos.bsky.social will love these!

Swimming under the starling murmuration tonight at Brighton Palace Pier - just awesome. Not sure if this qualifies as cityscape @panophotos.bsky.social ?😊

This Petition just needs 5,000 signatures to get over the 100k needed for consideration for a Parliamentary debate By almost every economic and financial measure Brexit has been disastrous for the UK - lets start the conversation petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

This is what courage looks like. Bravo Mishell!

Despite the bitter wind and bits of icy rain this was a lovely way to start the day😊 The groynes in Saltdean are closer together than Hove and much higher. A shorter swim between them and more shelter from the wind. #panorama

Seaweed. It’s beautiful stuff. There might even be a book in it if you were stupid enough. Maybe call it Kelp. Catchier than seaweed. www.kozubooks.com/books-new/ke...

Back to waves. This one is called Phorcys.

Mme Mer on fine form this morning with the generously spaced big bouncy stuff and Salty Seabirds soaking up the sun and fun at Monday Mass. Awesome start to February and the week! 🌊🌞😊 Plenty of #SwimSmiles from the #arcticternchallenge crew🥰

Another glorious morning - a last run on the Tye for Bud before he goes home, and a beautiful sunrise. Have a lovely week everyone!

After checking out Saltdean Beach with my weekend guest Bud Basset I couldn’t resist going back without him for a quick dip. So a panorama from the groyne and one from the water - and a bonus Bud who was posing so nicely😊 Such a glorious [email protected]

Good Morning! A Glorious crisp and sunny morning’s walk with Bud Basset this morning.🌞 Fortunately no adverse effects from someone peeing on an electric fence post yesterday - just a happy waggy tail as he gambols along. 😊

On the horizon the red eye of dawn tries to lift the clouds of sleep from its brow…

I think my weekend guest is feeling thoroughly at home. Also think I might need a bigger bed🤣 A great opportunity for panoramas on our walks though😊@panophotos.bsky.social

Fabulous - another for @panophotos.bsky.social

‘Rivals’. It was lovely, a couple of years ago, to have this photo included in Phaidon Press’s anthology, ‘Ocean’ opposite a painting by Aivazovsky. 📷

When maximum sentence for chaining yourself to railings is over twice maximum sentence for racially aggravated assault, anyone who cares about justice should be appalled. This is a dangerous, undemocratic & disproportionate attack on longstanding right to peaceful protest in UK #DefendOurJuries

Ice Reflections. A drifting iceberg deep in a fjord in Greenland. It was a still morning with most of the iceberg’s congregating together, except this one. The massive fjord walls proved an excellent backdrop. #photography #nature #landscapephotography

The Lords vote down government plans for AI - peers backed a package of amendments to the Data (Use and Access) Bill - Baroness Kidron said they would counter “the widespread theft of IP by AI companies who use it as raw material for their products”. grahamlovelace.substack.com/p/uk-governm...

Quite good ad from Canada about AI I doubt you could run this ad in the UK or US www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ZQw...

Gorgeous!

On the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, everything that led to the Holocaust is in danger of being forgotten. The Nazis channeled the demands of oligarchs, scapegoated minorities and replaced democracy with a new imperium. Those politics are returning. #NeverForget #NeverAgain

Just repeating this! If you're an organisation in #Brighton & #Hove that's joined #Bluesky @bsky.app recently & want to be in the #StarterPack, let me know 🙂

WTF?!!! This beggars belief!!!

Wishing everyone a peaceful day. I'll be off hiking in the Northern California coastal mountains, pretending nothing else exists. In my own little mythology, this Hedgehog Cactus bloom is the origin of the universe. Easy to get lost in this stuff. #photography #photographersunited 𝘌𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘰𝘤𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘶𝘴

Now that’s what I call Blue Monday - even when the sky and sea aren’t quite blue - so much joy! From this morning’s Salty Seabirds Monday Mass in Brighton😊

Forgot to tag @panophotos.bsky.social in this post🤦🏽‍♀️ Worth another look as mornings haven't been as colourful since!

Sometimes the colours of flowers in bud are as magnificent as the open blooms themselves!

Good morning! Hard to resist leaping out in my dressing gown to capture a panorama every few minutes as this morning’s sunrise kept on giving😊 Have a lovely day all!

Swimming by Brighton Palace Pier under the starling murmuration as the full moon rises - awesome!
