Had a peaceful weekend. Cutting the grass and baking Gruyere cheese scones (how middle class 😂). Even had a wee visit from this Robin while I was tidying up in the garden. 🙂

I'm not coming on claiming to be a massive fan of Ozzy, but it is undeniable the foundations he, and Black Sabbath created for the music I've been listening to since I was about 12. Undoubtedly one of the greatest rock/metal artists ever. Rest easy Ozzy. #ozzyosbourne

I had the pleasure of shooting the dress rehearsal of Giffnock Theatre Players production of Table Manners by Alan Ayckbourn. Their run has started this evening (26th) at #EastwoodParkTheatre and continues until Wednesday evening (28th). More pictures to follow shortly.

2014 again. Commonly known as "The bridge to nowhere", Belhaven Bridge spans a river channel, Biel Water as it makes it's way to the North Sea on the East Coast of Scotland. At high tide, the river channel is hidden and the bridge becomes inaccessible. #scottishphotography #photographer #scotland

Another 2014 landscape shot. Craignish Point, Aird, West coast of Scotland. Despite what you may think, Scotland does have some beautiful weather. I think I was practicing getting some drama into this skies with this shot. #photography #scottishphotographer #nature #scotland #coastline

From 2013, to 2014 and I'm now trying my hand at landscapes. Rannoch Moor region of the Scottish highlands. I forget the name of the mountains...shockingly...hopefully someone can tell me. #photography #scottishphotographer #photographer #scottishhighlands #rannochmoor #scotland

Amur Leopard. Edinburgh Zoo. Another B&W shot as I continued to explore photography. I've always loved this image as it looks like she's about to sneeze. Her powerful teeth a reminder that, regardless of how cute she looks, she's fierce. #blackandwhitephotography #photography #photographer #nature

Final one for tonight. A close up study of a feather. Again taken from the same period where I was learning to use my camera. #black&whitephotography #photographer #photography

Leaving home. Believe it or not, this dandelion seed was suspended by the most gossamer of strands of fibre which makes it appear as though it's leaving the main body of the flower. Another minimalist shot from the same time as my Daisy. #photography #photographer #black&whitephotography

Perennial leucanthemum (I think). Taken a good few years ago when I was learning photography to help me manage my depression and anxiety. It was peaceful, focused and meant I could calm my mind by thinking about the subject rather than the intrusive thoughts running through my head. #photography

It's #worldtheatreday #worldtheaterday today. So as a mark of respect to the amazing actors I've photographed over the years, I'm sharing a selection of my images below. Check the Alt text for details of each performance.
![Giffnock Theatre Players - Men should weep.
Men Should Weep (originally called Quancos Should Dance) is a play by Ena Lamont Stewart, first staged in 1947.[1] It is set in Glasgow during the 1930s Depression, with all the action taking place in the household of the Morrison family. The black and white image dipicts one of the main characters at the kitchen table of the Morrison family, dressed in her tabbard which was popular with housewives at the time (and still in use today). The actor looks pensive, her hands in her lap staring at the tea pot and cups sitting on the kitchen table.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:r54sccq5jdmnzzkbv3te6tlr/bafkreiaefkrvfamly7ytvce2y22yzwqnpgofn26lvyxbcup2vewddforoe@jpeg)

Happy Monday Peeps!
So, first full week back at work since the holidays, and it's like I've never been away. 😂
Also, say hello to Marcel. My daughter drew this character a few years ago and I said that it would make a great tattoo. So last Thursday I got it, didn't tell my daughter. Tears of joy😊

New Year, New Gear!
Happy New Year everyone. I hope 2025 brings you peace and happiness. I'm looking forward to using my new #fujifilmxh2 with @giffnocktheatreplayers at their next performance. Until then, it'll be lots of practice shots to get used to this camera. 😉

Streaming schedule for the week...and every week. 😅
I don't commit to a schedule, because life is too chaotic at times and means I need to be flexible. If you ever want to see an older gamer rant at people on Call of Duty - you'll see my go live notifications on Bluesky 😁💙 #Twitch #BO6 #BlackOps6
