Good summary of “don’t give him what he wants” from relatively comfortable white liberals.

This photo was taken in 1911 using glass plate technology by Herbert Ponting who was part of Scott's Antarctic expedition,

The composition and detail are exquisite with the band of white snow/ice creating a perfect frame around the two people and the ship in the distance

Iconic imo
Photograph from 1911 taken by Herbert Ponting whilst with Scott's Antarctic Expedition The monochrome photo is taken from within a cave. The walls of the cave are made of ice. The cave entrance is in the mid distance with two figures standing looking out towards a distant ship. Between them and the ship there is first a 'beach' of ice before the sea itself. The ship could be up to 800 metres away What makes the photo so special is that where the figures are at the cave entrance there is a band of very white snow and ice (contrasting with the comparatively dark inside of the cave) that creates a stark framework in which the men and the ship are captured. It is made even more dramatic by the fact that the cave entrance is at least 30 metres high and is in the shape of a distorted elipse with the tail sloping off to the right at the top of the elipse The photo being in monochrome in a largely white environment makes the photographers skill all the more laudable

It’s been ages since I revisited this lockdown blog about the ghosts of The Sign of the Angel in Lacock, Wiltshire. 👻

Then an email popped in my inbox from Paul Lee - he’s been chatting to the staff.

Snowdrops are quietly emerging across Dyffryn Gardens.

Have you spotted any near you?
Photo taken at grass level showing white snowdrops flowering. We also make our purple crocuses although these aren't in focus. Behind but blurred is a large country house.

Dreamy Reflections at Low Tide

This is a quick snap I took early in the morning at Gulfport, Mississippi. The two gulls are likely laughing gulls, and the larger bird is a great blue heron.
"Three birds stand quietly on a sandbar surrounded by shallow, shimmering water — a tranquil coastal tableau rendered in soft light. Two of the birds are gulls, compact and pale, their bodies angled slightly as if mid-conversation. The third is a taller, more statuesque figure: a heron, with long legs and a graceful neck that curves like a question mark against the horizon. The water around them glows with reflected light, creating a silvery wash that blurs the boundary between earth and sky. There’s no wind, no urgency — just the quiet geometry of birds and water, each figure distinct yet part of a shared stillness. The heron’s posture is regal, the gulls companionable, and the whole scene feels like a moment borrowed from a longer rhythm — the tide’s breath, the birds’ pause, the day’s hush." - Microsoft Copilot

After ICE agents shot people in Minneapolis tonight, a crowd faced them down and eventually chased them away, despite federal mercenaries and police shooting a tremendous amount of tear gas.

ICE agents abandoned vehicles in the area, containing IDs, paperwork, license plates, and operational plans.
