73% of the world's wildlife has been lost in the past 50 years. The biodiversity crisis is just one topic covered in Earth Photo 2025, a thought-provoking photography exhibition now on at Anglesey Abbey until 23 Nov 2025.
This globe sizzled and flickered like it was on fire--a symbol of a planet in turmoil. By Mona Hatoum, from the exhibition Mona Hatoum x Giocometti at the Barbican.
Enjoyed Mona Hatoum x Giacometti at the #Barbican . . . an exhibition reminding us about conflict and oppression around the world.
'Who's in charge here?' from a policeman. From Drop City, a novel about a commune in California in early 1970s by TC Boyle. Would recommend! 👍🏽 #DropCity ☮ 1/2
An artist’s response to the planned siting of nuclear cruise missiles in the UK in 1980. Just one way of looking at The Hay Wain by Constable. ‘Art That Conquered the World’ on BBC Sounds explores how this popular painting has been viewed over its 200-year history. buff.ly/40qOVgL
Just a country-sized storm passing through. Winds gusting to 50-60 mph. Storm Darragh on it's way . . .
Well done Shelford Nomads on your win over Saffron Walden. And well done to both teams for playing during Storm Bert!
Bought some art this weekend. Got it at the Fry Art Gallery annual sale.
Common yarrow showed up in the border, and I left it there. It's got bright white flowers and fern-like leaves. Insects seem to like it too. 👍🏼
Beautiful scenes at @IWMDuxford last night. Came across an evening air show during a walk. Two planes were lit up and did aerobatics.
