Here is my Teenage Engineering PC-1, filled with random bits from old PCs and ebay, dual-booting #CachyOS and #FreeBSD like a champ.
Stunning conditions at lunchtime down on the seafront today. Winter gone, the storms have swept a huge mountain of shingle and pebbles further up the beach to reveal a big strip of sand at the waters edge - we have a sandy beach at last! #Brighton #beach #photography #fujifilm
Pretty grumpy at Apple for obvious reasons right now, but the gear still surprises me now and then.
Even my iPhone 13 mini, a way behind the state of the art, can do me this amazing handheld shot of my friends silhouetted against the lights of Bournemouth across the bay, with actual stars in the sky.
Or is it all made up?
After 3 years I have finally got this orchid to flower again after our lockdown kitten ate all the old flowers. He's now a 6.5kg monster, so clearly no ill effect there and happily has stopped eating plants. All sorts of garbage around the internet on how to look after these things, I wish I'd found this guide earlier. https://www.rhs.org.uk/plants/phalaenopsis/growing-guide
I love the Provoke #camera app on #iOS. You can be somewhere relatively unpromising (hospital outpatient appointment with daughter) and just look up and snap. It's a bit slow and janky, but that's part of the fun.
Went down to the beach to get my stormy photo fix today, as it definitely won't be safe tomorrow.. Rare force 11 forecast for Wight and Portland, Force 12 for Plymouth. #brighton #beach #photography #weather
