New arrival, and so far I think it’s the best Honey Bee Overdrive pedal that I’ve ever tried. Will it be the tweed-tone pedal that finally dethrones my beloved Sweet Honey Overdrive? It’s certainly in with a shout. #guitars #pedals

Chuffed to bits to discover we were #2 bestselling book in the Kilmartin museum shop in 2024!

An abandoned asylum in Norwich UK #fujifilm 

I love how the overhead lighting just hit this kart at the right time. #Photography #kartraces #fujifilmxt1 #carphotos

Golden waves kiss the silent shore, whispers of light in the evening's lore. The sky ignites in an amber flame. As day departs with no refrain. Footsteps fade in time’s embrace, shadows dance, then leave no trace. Night soon wakes with stars to guide, where dreams and ocean tides collide.

I would really really love to hear other people's notes/strong memories about the specifics of this. I feel like we were all in such trauma that the memories have vanished fast, leaving a blanket of "oh god yuck awful" which isn't helpful for understanding how it's affected us. #fiveyearson

Walking the dog, Bamburgh 📷 I do like capturing people in my #landscape photos every once in a while. It gives a sense of scale. I often wonder if they're enjoying the scenery as much as I am. #photography #seascape #minimalism #sunrise #landscapephotography

Upping this photo, because it's buried in a thread. Love the mood of this one. I think it deserves to make it onto your timeline 😁 #fujifilm #photography #penarth #marina #xh2 #masts

I've been shooting #sooc for my #fujifilm #photography for the last couple of weeks. Thought it would be interesting to compare a #jpeg with an edited RAW file. Not meant to be a fair comparison, or apples-to-apples. More that I'm interested in seeing if I want to change my JPEG settings.

I love a good fuzz pedal. There’s just something about how they transform your guitar's sound. I designed the Cryptid Fuzz to give you my favorite aspects of all of those classics while also offering up unique new tones… www.wamplerpedals.com/products/fuz...

One of my biggest regrets as a photographer is that I never photographers inside the Coal Exchange. Many years ago, previous owners did invite me, but alas I never saw their message at the time.

There’s a small group of folks outside the Senedd who are exercising their democratic right to protest. They’re upset that they’re not allowed to drive faster and put more lives at risk. I can’t find the right words to express my contempt for their cause.

It will take a generation to untangle ourselves from the US. Our entire economy runs on American tech. They make our computers, our phones, their operating systems, and most of the software we use every day. Europe and UK have no ready replacements. They must be built first.

One of the reasons I love living in #Wales is that I’m never far from the mountains (to escape airsick lowlanders) and Kristi is never far from the sea (to keep her gills wet). #photography #fujifilm #sooc #AdaptedGlass #CanonFD #jpeg #penarth #cardiff

Someone else has probably already posted this here but Joint European Defence Initiative would be JEDI for short. Just sayin… A JEDI council wouldn’t be the worst idea.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy is a great and brave man in a room pathetic, corrupt, self serving, cowardly toads.

When I was Head of Engineering for a VoIP provider, I had Skype down on my risk register as one of our major potential competitors. Did not foresee that Microsoft would buy it and bury it. That’s the kind of incompetence normally associated with *Google*.

Another #SOOC #JPEG from yesterday’s #photography. I really like the look that I’m getting from this vintage #CanonFD 50mm f/1.8 lens on my #fujifilm #xh2.

An ailment many of us are increasingly suffering from...

I’m trying something different today. Let me know what you think 🙂 #photography #fujifilm #xh2 #sooc #jpeg #canonfd #50mm #wales #stfagans

Almost 10 years of work to produce this. Another week or two of polishing, and I'll finally be ready to actually release it 🙂

You do not have "legitimate concerns on immigration" Sorry.

Bad Management is the British disease. And it looks like Cardiff Uni has a particularly bad case of it 🙁

Shame on the UK Government. We voted for change, not for competent Tories. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
