Fun with recursion and basic geometric shapes. Sampled one of my photos for the palette. #generative #generativeart #genart #creativecoding #digitalart #p5js #Processing

A first (dodgy) attempt at some land art, inspired by twistedsifter.com/2018/02/land... It's harder than it looks! #photography

A pointless farm gate. It was colder than it looks - and it looks cold! #photography #FarmGateFriday

Colourful beach huts #photography

One more Edinburgh photo. The chimneys really took my eye. It's good to get above the rooftops and let the telephoto lens compress the perspective. #photography

Another photo of Edinburgh. I can't remember where exactly this was. #photography

A steep climb in Edinburgh #photography

At last - a good use for freezing people when they die. In a hundred years we can rouse a certain politician, open their entry on Wikipedia (if the wonderful Wikipedia still exists) and say: "THIS is what history makes of you!!!" Nobel peace prize my foot... #politics

A walk in the sunshine yesterday lifted the spirits. Spring is in the air! #photography

Happy birthday, Theodor Geisel aka Dr. Seuss. Your 1941 editorial cartoon is just as relevant today as it was then.

Autumn stubble and beech trees create a golden glow. #photography
