The hoaxers are out in full force today. School next door swarming with police. Same with others across the state. Great work, arseholes.

I usually am remote mon/tues but because of new starter have done both on-prem this week; It's had a really weird effect on my internal clock as I'm sure it's Thursday.

And another point about consent made by @dentangle when apps ask you for access to your address book, don't give it.

You can't consent on your contacts behalf to give information to Facebook to help them build shadow profiles. Well you can upload, but your contacts didn't explicitly consent.

My little Kawasaki on a trip out to the Kiski river (behind in this photo). It was July, and the last trip before an extensive service which took me forever to accomplish.

Ocean Village, Southampton, about 1030 pm on a Summer night. This a stacked exposure run through CS3's HDR tool to bring out a bit more range. I remember grabbing a pint at the bar behind me after this...

This is later, in the 'blue hour', the sun has gone down and there's not much light left. Luminance rendered this one a bit less naturally but it still captures the vibe I wanted.
