The birthday present that will keep on giving! Thanks @dreframss.bsky.social and @nannaklk.bsky.social!

The National Museum of Colombia is set within Bogotá’s Panopticon penitentiary.

Darwin adoration is alive and well in the Galapagos

According to our guide at Borobudur Temple, the reason the reliefs on the left are yellow (compared those on the right) was because the 19th C Dutch photographer Isidore van Kinsbergen needed more contrast for his photos. So he painted them all yellow. Gotta love colonial mindsets.

The Swakopmund Museum is really excellent. Lots of great Sci and Tech objects and great displays about the local communities, archaeological, geology and history. If you are ever here, well worth the visit

Staying in a little cottage in Prince Albert, South Africa- and they have box brownies and an NPG poster. They must have known I was coming. Oh, and also a lovely back garden

So long UK - at least for the winter

Today is the start of a big adventure. Down to London for a couple days of work, then Saturday we are off on a round the world trip for three months. If you want to follow along and see scenic pics of the southern hemisphere, follow me on instagram @curatorgeoff

Starting second day of TaNC #unlockingcollections Conference with @timboon.bsky.social giving an overview of the Congruence Engine project. Have had the joy of working with this project over the last two years. Hopefully just the start to building connected heritage collections in the UK

Beautiful views from the train on the way out of Edinburgh to Manchester for the TANC end of projects meeting

Here is my tributary offer for new followers. This is Peggy

Spending the day back down in Bradford for Yorkshire Games Festival! So lovely to be back in old haunts, hearing about the present and future of the games industry

Had the privilege of learning photogravure from the expert, Jon Goodman, yesterday. What a treat. The image at the end actually printed myself!

Gorgeous autumnal morning views of Edinburgh today

Excellent way to spend a long weekend - at the End of the Road festival at Larmer Tree Gardens listening to excellent music with friends and family

It’s a bit of double trouble working from home today

As I dearly hope this is a better place than that other place, I start as I plan to go on. With pictures of pups. This is Peggy. She’s a very good pup
