Goldenacre Park early this morning. The most vibrant autumn colours under a leaden sky.

Ireland Wood, Leeds.

The area was named in the nineteenth century for the Irish who came to England to build canals. Today it is a tiny wild forest.

Fantastic music from Joni Mitchell’s friend Charles Mingus. Highly recommended.

Instant rebuttal to your nonsense.

Quite a lot actually, and gone some way to repairing the fourteen years of horror from the Tories. And more to come.

The two things that really drew me to vinyl were the expense and the inconvenience.

A pie chart showing the final result of the 2024 US presidential election in order to show an elderly relative that the biggest group by far were non-voters.

This was the only one I could find from when the count was at 97%.

Is there a final version or has it been suppressed by the oligarchs?

Exploring Camsnet film simulations for the Ricoh, as an alternative to Richie’s Recipes - this one is “vintage”.

Just when you think you’ve got all the Miles’ stuff you need, they release this fine sounding remaster.

Just when you think you’ve got all the Miles Davis music that you will ever need, they release this marvellous compilation remastered and sounding better than ever.

The best album by Frank Zappa is Studio Tan. Truly repays close listening.

Forget Hot Rats, Uncle Meat, Apostrophe etc this is the best.

The astonishingly beautiful new gallery and performance space in the grounds of the Gulbenkian in Lisbon.

Wet and rainy day did not deter the many visitors.

Shot with Ricoh Digital II (2007) raw, edited in Snapseed. I save the settings in Snapseed as a ‘’look”, sometimes it works to my taste, sometimes not.

But the fun is in the trying.

GRIII & GRIIIx users - if you can be bothered I would really appreciate to learn your in-camera image control settings. I’m finding it hard to get the same results as I get with my ancient GR Digital II in raw and then Snapseed.
