A moment of angelic beauty in Canada's Algonquin Provincial Park, as the rising sun penetrates clearing fog and touches pine trees, dressed in glittering dew. The transformative power of light is endless!

15 years ago today I arrived on Downing Street in a cage.
I've seen off Cameron, May, Johnson, Truss and Sunak and I'm still going strong.
Only two Prime Ministers have ever done longer stints here: William Pitt the Younger and Sir Robert Walpole.
Bill and Bob - I'm coming for you...

Bluebell Woods
for #ForestFriday

Turning the clock back to last spring!

Photograph taken in late spring looking into the woods from The Himalayan Gardens and Sculpture Park, Yorkshire. Decided to turn the clock back a bit! On the right of the frame, a tree trunk grounds the scene, with tall thin trees beyond in full green leaf. At the bottom are native bluebells and ferns. The light illuminates a glade beyond the trees. Absolutely love this Yorkshire garden. It's arboretum is spectacular in autumn too. Well worth a day out if you're near Grewelthorpe.

An old favorite, again from my favored walking/photo area just north of Brookings, OR. I never saw another human there, during any of my many prowls. It was a private wonderland that early in the day. #Stunday
Sunbeams breaking through the fog of a stark coastal forest, lighting the path and many ferns, other foliage.

Forest Trail
This photo by Kanenori shows a misty forest trail winding through dense green ferns and tall trees, with mossy rocks along a damp, foggy path.

Measles has one of the highest basic reproduction numbers (R₀) of any disease (12 to 18), meaning one infected person can spread it to 12 to 18 others in a fully susceptible population, making it extremely contagious. Need 95% vaccination status to achieve herd immunity. Get vaccinated!!
A diagram showing different colored humans. The title reads — There have been 646 measles cases confirmed in the current South Carolina outbreak (as of Jan 20, 2026) Red human — unvaccinated (563) Black human — unknown vaccination status (58) Blue human — partially vaccinated (12) Green human — fully vaccinated (13) Receiving both doses of the measles vaccine (MMR vaccine) is 97% effective at preventing measles.

Low clouds in the foothills this morning. 💛🤍
Cascade foothills. Low clouds mixed in with the trees, rolling mountains behind, topped with creamy yellow sky and gray clouds.

What began 4 years ago as a way to honor my mother’s dying wish has quietly grown into a lifelong journey of seeing, feeling, and sharing the world differently. Photography has taught me patience, gratitude, and how to find light even in the darkest moments #BlueSkyPhotographer #BlueSkyPhotography

Lovely low, bright winter's sun passing through the trees on our woodland walk today
Tricolour border collie on a woodland track. You can see his breath. It's a crisp, cold wintery day with the sunlight passing between the tall trees behind
