Cartoon face with hair drawn into buns on either side at the top of the head
Shelf with a “book of poo” book, a Disney cruises mug, a pin badge with “It’s Prof actually” on it and a small pink painted watercolour of a smiling unicorn
Snail on a tarmac path. Looking supremely unconcerned by the world.
Tomatoes turning green to red
Swan gliding on a mirror bright canal, verdant verge in the foreground and leafy trees behind
Hedge flowers in the foreground, cotton wool clouds in a bright blue sky, gently dipping grass covered ground beyond.
Old and happy looking English bulldog with tiny purple shoes on
Ladybug on a black hexagonal plastic surface
Older white cis man in a deep green bucket hat and a yellow t shirt with turtle print from Masato Jones (Leeds)
Dried flower head with scant seed cases reflecting light with a gold tint. Behind the skeletal flower casts a shadow with different depths and structure but coming from the same item.
Red fox lab, semi recumbent, head held high and looking into the mid distance. Behind her is a yellow wall, and she rests on a gray carpet.
Balls of pink petals on a tree against a very blue sky. I think it’s fresh cherry blossoms, but my flower knowledge is as limited as my comprehension of house music sub genres.
Some sheep, who are either white and dark brown, stood in a field covered with hoar frost and looking a little pissed off that the photographer doesn’t have a pocket full of tasty treats
Night sky over an illuminated Glasgow Armadillo, a massive building of grey steel lapped like an armadillo by the banks of the Clyde. A green shining part of the SEC sits slightly to the left.
Old white bearded and balding cis-man with glasses, short collar poking over a white sweatshirt, sitting in a train seat whipping through green countryside. His expression is vaguely bemused, which is familiar to those who know him.
Lone tree at the left edge of a field slowly re-greening in the presence of a faint mist and dawning glow
Raised glass room on a stage with misty smoke billowing in front of floor mounted spots
Painting. Colourful urban field with large water / smoke tower int he background and a blue police box in the midground
Post about Elizabethan sailing ships with an ancient tapestry, above a Joanne Harris post describing the mythic writing “shed” as a ghost ship today.
Brightly coloured canal boat afloat and in front of a red bro k block of fancy flats
Dirty white high backed chair firm on brown leaf litter, made of polystyrene
Fish. Like goldfish but bigger and more sort of pale yellow, apart from the salmon pink one that’s not a salmon.
White body black headed sheep staring directly at the camera. “Bloody paparazzi.” their expression says, legs parallel and slightly muddy. Behind them is a dry stone wall. Far behind us another sheep, head slightly low, with a “Leave it Alex, the hassle isn’t worth it “ air
Softly lit light box with illuminated shapes on it, mimic of a stained glass window. The rectangular portrait image has blue dove forms in the bottom corners facing a trio of pink oval petals. To the left three green oval leaves tumble from a bunch of pink petals above, to the right a pair of triangles pint to heaven and hell and clusters of leaves come from the side and top right corner
Climbing red roses in bloom, spreading into an oval array from a single feeder stem. The stems are green, and they sit against an uneven brick wall which has been whitewashed, but not enough that the dark doesn’t threaten the paint somewhere in every brick.
A three eyed flat, bobbly blue circular-ish alien creature in the centre of a ring of red feathers. This shows the bacteria / badness of mucositis being captured and controlled by the magical beams of photobiomodulation.
Front cover of the “Teacup magic” audiobook with an image of an early 30s white woman with deep auburn hair and red dress lifting a classic white teacup off a saucer and eying the viewer with a knowing sideways glance
