Today, show your favourite time of the year!
Today’s TDC says: Today, show your favorite time of the year! You can draw us a picture, share a photo you’ve taken, or even write us a poem about it. No Googling though. This is DS106 I love all of the seasons, but the autumn colours are spectacular. Here’s a picture I took at Ross Priory at the weekend Acer in Autumn colours flickr photo by NomadWarMachine shared under a Creative Commons (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0) license

Brambles
I blogged my responses to the TDC thoughout August, and I kind of missed doing that today so here’s this one. Today’s TDC says: Today is the first day of meteorological autumn in the northern hemisphere. Make us something autumnal – maybe a picture or a poem. I don’t have any autumnal photos for this year yet – though we noticed that the trees were starting to drop their leaves when we visited Mugdock earlier this week I didn’t take any pics. […]

8 months of daily photos in 2026
Another 31 days of daily photos checked off. One photo a day, every day, uploaded to Flickr. A moment where I pause each day and appreciate where I am.

Gargoyle with Cone
During the month of August I will be participating in Blaugust, a month long blogging challenge. Today’s TDC says: The Duke of Wellington statue stands outside GoMA, and is a Glasgow icon. He usually has one cone on his head, sometimes more. Recently it’s being taken to ridiculous extremes, and some people are not happy about it. And – worse – our trend has spread to Edinburgh, and they are horrified. Find a statue, or a photo of one, and decorate it with a traffic […]

Border Force
During the month of August I will be participating in Blaugust, a month long blogging challenge. Today’s TDC says: Your keywords for today’s TDC are: on the border. Make something and/or show us something that goes with these words. Border Force flickr photo by NomadWarMachine shared under a Creative Commons (BY-NC-SA 2.0) license I searched through my Flickr albums for ‘border’ and found this picture of a boat, taken in Oban a few years ago. I wondered at the time what […]

Inner monologue
During the month of August I will be participating in Blaugust, a month long blogging challenge. Today’s TDC asks us to: Tell us about your inner monologue. Bonus points for recording it. 224/365 Non Eclipse flickr photo by NomadWarMachine shared under a Creative Commons (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0) license Work’s tricky at the moment, so a lot of my inner monologue is best kept to myself, but there’s one thing on my mind today. Yesterday was the day of a solar eclipse, […]

My super power
During the month of August I will be participating in Blaugust, a month long blogging challenge. There’s two apps on my phone that I really like, and use a lot. The first is Merlin, the app from Cornell that helps people to identify birds. The second is Pl@ntNet, a free app that helps people to identify plants. They are both great, and thanks to Merlin I am getting better at guessing which bird I am hearing as I am out walking […]

Image the Alt Text
During the month of August I will be participating in Blaugust, a month long blogging challenge. Today’s TDC asks us to: For this Daily Create, you are tasked with imagining the image that is described by the alternative text below. Close-up of a chain-link fence with metal wires, set against a cloudy blue sky and distant green fields. What do you “see” in these words and given context? Create it as an photo you might find, draw as a sketch, as […]

3-30-300 rule
During the month of August I will be participating in Blaugust, a month long blogging challenge. Glasgow is called Dear Green Place, and looking around where I live in the suburbs you can see why. Today’s TDC says that: 3-30-300 is an urban forestry concept which states that every resident should be able to see at least 3 mature trees from their home, live in a neighbourhood with at least 30% tree canopy cover, and be within 300 metres of a high-quality […]
