My very unprofessional photo of the eclipse yesterday, using a phone camera & my eclipse glasses. I really loved the atmosphere of the twilight effect but I was also amazed at how much light still gets through from such a small sliver of sun. Our star is a powerful entity! ☀️📷 #eclipse #photography
It's not even August yet and the Christmas stuff is already out in the shops. I took this photo a few days ago too! Totally bonkers! How capitalism stole Christmas...
Summer solstice sunset at Hope Cove in Devon. Great evening for a swim and a beautiful end to the longest day ☀️🌞🙏 #photography 📷 #summersolstice

Blue Moon rising on the edge of Dartmoor yesterday evening, just after sunset. Taken on my phone so a bit small. There's another chance to see it tonight (cloud dependent of course). It was at its fullest at 9:45am this morning but below the horizon in the UK. #FullMoon #Dartmoor #photography 📷🌝🔵
This is the smallest National Trust property in existence - Hawker's Hut on the north coast of Cornwall near Morwenstow. #coast #cornwall #photography #walk #hiking
Our study is an NIHR-funded collaboration between the Universities of Plymouth, Exeter, Aberdeen, Aston, and NELFT NHS. This important project will address a poorly understood healthcare issue affecting many older adults with chronic pain. See image/alt text for more details. (2/2)
Viaduct near Tavistock at sunset earlier this month. #Nature meets #architecture - I've posted some photos of this before and it's always a great spot for a walk. #Dartmoor #photography 📷😎
What a beaut - I'll never tire of a good tree #Dartmoor #photography #nature

Self-portrait by Roger Barrett (aka Syd Barrett). A stunning oil painting from around 1961-2. I love the fine detail on this - very abstract and impressionist. I'll post some art from later in his life next time. #SydBarrettArt #art #painting www.sydbarrett.com
Roger Barrett - aka Syd Barrett - is best known for his short musical career & founding Pink Floyd. But he was also a prolific visual artist up until the end of his life. This 1961 painting is called Orange Dahlias - I'll post more of his art soon. #SydBarrettArt #art #painting www.sydbarrett.com

Happy New Year's Day! We braved the elements and went to the beach - powerful nature on a rainy afternoon 🌊📷🦀 #Devon #coast #photography #nature
Nothing quite beats a delightful winter romp through the outer edges of the Shire in Middle-earth, to peruse some epic tree roots. #nature #photography #Wiltshire #trees
It's the winter solstice today, so here's a favourite photo 📷 of Stonehenge from the summer solstice earlier this year. The days will slowly be getting longer now. 🌄 🪨☀️ #photography #Stonehenge #solstice #powerful
One of my favourite recent(ish) photos, taken almost exactly one year ago near Tavistock in Devon. 📷🤩 #Dartmoor #photography #nature #architecture
When I watched Home Alone as a kid, I rooted for Kevin. As an adult, I totally root for the Wet Bandits. Go get that little sh*t! #Christmas #HomeAlone #WetBanditsFTW #Festive
