Christmas #poetry gifts... I've copies of my short collection 'rock|salt' (2022) #poems about #Fife in Scotland & its industrial / seafaring #heritage. Pls donate to my friend Victoria McGloin's memorial in aid of #womenshealth, then DM me & I will post books: www.justgiving.com/page/vicky-m... 💙

From this bright start to the day, a nosedive into the red zone for #stormeowyn 🤞🏻 #staysafe #winterstorm

#Edinburgh decided to show off at #sunset 😍

Glimpses of our stunning #winter walk round to the local loch today - all ice, feather and water ruffles 💙❄️

A transient new pathway over ice - curious which creature made this journey over the hill pond… #desireways #newpaths #ice #winterwalk

Another from last night; less detail in the light side of the moon, but I love that I caught something of what you could actually see! #moonandvenus #crescentmoon #NikonD3500

Crescent moon with Venus, taken with my Nikon D3500 camera, 70-300 lens, & a tripod. Very much a beginner at #astrophotography 🌙✨❄️ Gorgeous, crisp, cold night.

A beautiful moment to end a tough year; Giant’s Causeway with good friends, epic turquoise waves and a pod of dolphins passing by 💙 Couldn’t believe that last part, but it happened. Much love, courage and resilience to you all for 2025 ✨

Festive greetings and warm wishes to all my followers from
my wee corner of this beautiful world 💙

Muted #dawn colours over the Binn hill, Fife coast, early this morning. A blue silver #frost and orange-reds left over from autumn. The only sound was a blackbird sounding the alarm that I was in his space (forgive me, good sir, it was so beautiful).

Two years ago, I was lucky enough to be part of a collaborative #mixedmedia #art and #poetry project with Fife artist, Elspeth Knight. The rock|salt project celebrated life past, present and future in our corner of the #Fife coast, east Scotland 💙🌊

Oh #Edinburgh, Edinburgh 💙

First time in a while, but I’ve been invited to read my #poetry at a Christmas carol concert in a couple of weeks time ✨ So lovely to be invited… now, what to read…?

My #poem 'Net' was selected for an anthology called 'Salt Songs' by the George Mackay Brown Fellowship in Orkney, (2023). This tiny piece was inspired by GMB's writing, & appeared in my rock|salt collaboration with artist Elspeth Knight (2022) 💙 Link to anthology: www.orcadian.co.uk/shop/orkney-...

Here’s a link to read a few of my #poems, as featured on @blackboughpoetry.bsky.social Silver Branch last summer. I was so grateful to be invited to contribute to this beautiful series 💎 #PoetsonBlueSky #poetry #poetrycommunity

Paddled frantically to get away, you mean 😉 The sea is far prettier over this way…

Hello folks 👋 I’m a poet, writer & freelance scientific journalist living in East Scotland. I love autumn leaves, the sound of ink rollers on paper, searching for fossils and bird watching. I’ve written a few poetry books, and I’m part of an Edinburgh-based writing group called Twisted::Colon 💙

First post - last night’s near-full moon at dusk 💙
