The Pelican nebula (IC 5070), taken by me last week from London. 36 minutes total exposure. #astrophotography #astronomy #space #EastCoastKin
I don’t think the fox spotted me sitting in the garden, so I was able to get quite a good photo today! 🦊 #photography #wildlife #nature #fox #London
The fox has now started sunbathing on the roof of the shed! 🦊 🧗 #photography #nature #wildlife #fox #London
I’ve treated myself to a smart telescope! As it arrived during the day my first photo is the sun (and some clouds). More to come as I get to grips with it! #astrophotography #EastCoastKin #photography #sun #space

Our resident fox and another (possibly a sibling) were playing in the garden yesterday evening. I managed to get a photo, as stayed still long enough for a couple of seconds long exposure. Not sure if this is the one that made off with my phone the other week! #fox #wildlife #photography
I made this darling one jump when I took the recycling out but just look at his little nose! #hedgehog #TheSmallThings #SpreadingJoy
Our resident fox, who this morning stole my iPhone when I briefly left it in the garden and buried it in next door’s garden! Recovered thanks to the ‘Find my’ app, although I now need a new case! #photography #fox #nature #wildlife #London

This young fox has taken up residence in our garden. He’s even attempted to come into the house a couple of times! #photography #wildlife #fox #nature #London

It’s #TheGlorious25thMay once again, when we remember @terryandrob.bsky.social, John Keel, Sam Vimes and #ThePeoplesRepublicOfTreacleMineRoad. May we all have truth, justice, freedom, reasonably priced love, and a hard boiled egg. #HowDoTheyRiseUp #WearTheLilac

Happy birthday, Dad. Wish you were here. You’d know what to do. Or at least you’d know what to write. ❤️
