For the last 5+ years people have been sharing coastal landscape images with the Global Shorelines Project. I mount exhibitions in aid of marine conservation charities.
Maybe send me an image of a coast you love with a sentence of commentary.
Some previously posted examples below.

A lot of racists in UK media & politics are currently limbering up to hold Donald Trump to an infinitely lower moral standard than they did Gary Lineker.

No wonder the orange toddler is unhinged once again.
The Obamas are competent, classy, loving, Harvard and Princeton graduates, loved by many, not on the Epstein files, got the Nobel Peace Prize, and gave us a steady economy to boot.
Repost this if you agree they are AMAZING and an inspiration!

The language may be old, but the words of Shakespeare cut through to modern times.
... and if it's Sir Ian or Dame Judy speaking his words; wow!

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Cannot tell you how much I adore this clip from 1941 of women from the Western Isles of the Outer Hebrides singing as they work their Harris Tweed.
It was shot by the Oscar winning cinematographer JACK CARDIFF.

"Mother Seacole", much loved by the troops she cared for. An incredible story of determination.
Before the struggles of women like Mary Seacole & Florence Nightingale, to tend in forward war zones, nursing was very much handled by male Stewards.
.... my mum was also a nurse and loved her work.

A painting I wish I had kept. It was at the time, in my mind, focused on Women’s Rights, Roe v Wade, Me Too-
Now, it captures all my emotions for what we are living on a daily basis- liberties & democracy lost, oppression, dystopian rising. But there is also determination, unity, fight for freedom-

This is the judgement and sentencing of Andrew Gill, the ex leader of Reform in Wales for taking illegal donations from at least one Russian citizen. This needs to be shared to the max. 👇

Still my favourite album of all time, even after 51 years. Watched them play big chunks of it live in Earls Court London, 3 months after it came out. Also, the best gig I have ever seen. 4 guys at the peak of their powers.

Interesting article on the place of the arts, on the centenary of British TV.
It's not fair to say arts programming has totally disappeared, but it's certainly squeezed by the domination of 'reality TV', 'soap', 'talent' and 'gameshow' programmes.

The BBC once made the arts ‘utterly central’ to television – 100 years later they’re almost invisible
After British television was established in 1926, it went on to foster a productively rich relationship with the arts, but coverage has seriously declined this century.
