Sometimes the light and mist makes all the difference…

An early morning scene with mist rising from the calm sunlit water and the fog blurring the background and silhouetted reeds in the foreground and a couple of birds swimming in the mid ground.

Thanks Rob 👍 turns out I’ve still got quite a lot of images to process (as well as delete) from that trip so might have to wait until a similar theme and post some more.

Been slowly going through & culling files from my LR catalogue including a mostly untouched folder from the Algarve in 2023. So inspired by the #colouful theme for today’s #BirdOfTheDay a quick edit of this European Roller…

Thanks Alan 👍 and sorry I’ve read that it’s your ‘bogey bird’ but it’ll be worth all the perseverance when it happens! 🙂

I suspect there will be a few #kingfisher posts today given the theme is #colouful so here’s a post of a colourful kingy on a post 😉

@dylannardini.com @sophiecarr.bsky.social I tested on iPad and iPhone and browser and app. The posts I could see don’t show up via search are the following 3
bsky.app/profile/gera...
bsky.app/profile/gera...
bsky.app/profile/gera...
but you can’t know what you’re missing if it isn’t reliable

Sorry folks, I’m away for a few days without access to the internet. Will post winner on Friday. #sharemondays2025 #soz

Not great is it - seems a quite fundamental bug!

ronm123photo @ronm123photo.bsky.social · 2d

Thanks for confirming hopefully @support.bsky.team will respond and advise.

ronm123photo @ronm123photo.bsky.social · 2d

Thanks 👍 yeah I agree usually only disappoint by flying off! 😉

Thanks Alan 👍

ronm123photo @ronm123photo.bsky.social · 2d

Yeah I’ve seen @dylannardini.com suggest to judges that they like all the submissions but that doesn't always happen and clearly you can’t like what you don’t see anyway and by the time that’s might be noticed it’s probably too late. Can you advise @support.bsky.team ?

This #kestrel looked straight at me and seemed to be a bit of a #Character so I think suitable for #BirdoftheDay theme today by @alan678.bsky.social #birds #EastCoastKin #photography #photo #birdphotography #UKbirds

A kestrel perched on a wire against a blue sky and staring almost straight at me as I took some photos.

Thanks for confirming that Sophie. I’m not sure this is a new issue though because I’ve noticed this before but haven’t been certain and it just turned out that this was an easy to replicate example. Can’t help wondering if all entries are even seen each week & you can’t judge what you can’t see!

Hi, if I R click & select See #ShareMondays2025 posts > Latest & scroll to view the posts it seems that doesn't actually show ALL posts e.g. that doesn't show the posts by @geraldinecurtis.bsky.social or @stevepalmer.photography in the screenshot or perhaps other posts is it the same for everyone?

These posts (and perhaps others) don't appear for me when I select See #ShareMondays2025 posts and I've tested with different case sensitivity of the tag and they still don't show. I only see the examples in the screenshot if I visit the individual profiles. Is this just something I'm missing or is it the same for others and therefore a bug?
