Disgraceful. Meta are a disease. Two years + of being Meta free and I’ve no regrets.
And as a photographer, not being on Instagram has caused me problems with visibility and lost work opportunities. But, fuck it. Refuse to support companies like Meta.

On Christmas Eve 1968, in Lunar orbit, the Apollo 8 crew took this photo: “Earthrise."
I'll never forget how inspiring the Apollo missions were to my brother and me as kids. They showed us what our country and humanity can accomplish when we work together toward a common goal.

Good morning and a very Merry Christmas from a grey and chilly Tokyo.
Just another day here. We’ll be doing our Christmas on Sunday.
Trying not to let the insane noise here, from the builders, do my head in. The wine spritzers are helping.
Whatever you’re doing, enjoy!
Luv&peace
