Firstly, I'd just like to say thank you to all the people who have liked, boosted and commented on my images, and to all the new followers I have. It's rather humbling. 😊
Today's shot comes from a magical day in the Scottish #Highlands, a few years ago, when I was photographing red squirrels.
These charming characters are incredibly agile and can jump great distances between trees.
Here I managed to capture one as it appears to be flying down my lens.
@JasonStiff to be fair, I've watched humans do the same thing when trying to use software that was supposedly "dummy-proof"
@chad they must have poor sight lines out the right and left windows as well, because I think there's a better shot of seeing an Abrams tank parked between the lines of a parking spot than seeing one of those oversized trucks do it.
Happy #BlackHistoryMonth !
You know the drill by now. I don't like talking about Black history. Americans know Black history. I want to talk about white American history. In other words, racism, and the erasure of both positive achievements of, and injustices suffered by, non-white people. That's what people don't know.
Try this: Ask your white US friends what the statue of liberty celebrates.
Now ask your Black friends. Or French folk of any color.

@joe an unused bag of salt in the garage in May is far less stressful than needing salt you don't have in February.
This is a throwback to a magical #winter morning in 2021.
I don't typically include man-made objects in my images, but as I was walking to some of my favourite local ancient trees, I noticed the mist gathering under the bridge.
Upon dropping down to the shore of the Broadwater, I realised that the sun would rise behind the bridge. Then the magic unfolded shortly after a flock of geese flew over me and landed on the water.
