Finally got to snap some shots of my dear friend @connthornton.bsky.social the other day. They're an incredible performer and someone who has often been a teacher and mentor for me musically - I'm just glad got to take some pics before the worldwide tour happens.

A low-angle, centered shot captures an ornate chandelier hanging from a vibrant green ceiling. The chandelier features a complex, multi-tiered design with numerous light fixtures radiating outwards from a central, dark metallic structure. The light fixtures are surrounded by panels of what appears to be translucent white or frosted glass, arranged in a circular pattern. The ceiling itself is a solid, deep green, with subtle radiating lines emanating from the chandelier's central point. The historic stone ruins of Grey Abbey in Northern Ireland, featuring three large arched windows offering views of the sky and trees. A crow can be seen passing by in the archway of the middle window.

Video game promotional image for "The Lake House" expansion for Alan Wake 2. The title "The Lake House" is in block capitals arranged in the middle of the frame. The background is slightly blurred and has a blue-green hue. The background has two USA flags wrapped around poles with eagles on top, these flagpoles are on the left and right sides of the image. In the middle is a circular emblem which is for the FBC, the Federal Bureau of Control, which is an organisation from one of Remedy's other games, Control.

And my third (and final) introduction - I'm a linguist with a Master's in Translation, but my current focus is #BritishSignLanguage #BSL. Someday I want to be an interpreter, but for now here is my level 4 standard quick introduction!

Four clarinet players stand in front of the IVGO logo. The second player from the left is wearing a suit with a Pac-Man design. The player on the far right is holding a larger clarinet, a bass clarinet. The lighting is low level concert lighting. Ben, the owner of this account, stands in front of the IVGO (Irish Video Game Orchestra). He is dressed all in black and is wear glasses. His bowtie is black and white with a Star Wars design. He is pointing to his right with his right hand and in his left hand he holds an iPad and a conductor's baton. Behind, we see the string section with violins, violas, and cellos. Behind the string instruments we see a player standing up with a Pac-Man suit on. Two players stand in front of the Glasgow Worldcon 2024 logo. The player on the left, Sarah, is holding a drum called a Darbuka. She is smiling and laughing and holding the drum under her left elbow. Ben, the player to the right, is also smiling and laughing and is holding an Irish drum called the Bodhran (pronounced: bow-ron). The drum is under his left arm and in his right arm he holds three drumsticks between his knuckles in a pose reminiscent of Wolverine with his claws from the X-men. Ben, the clarinet player, holds his clarinet in his left hand and is leaning over a piano/keyboard in this selfie. This image is taken in his home and he is wearing casual clothing, a white t-shirt and some shorts. He is smiling.

As an introductory post, here is a photo from one time the Northern Lights decided to visit N.Ireland #Photography #Canon #NorthernLights #NorthernIreland #Ireland
The northern lights in the sky, some light stars can be seen. There is a person in the bottom right on their phone but they are blurry from movement showing that this was a slow shutter speed. The northern lights themselves show the colours pink and purple the most across the middle of the frame.
