I want to give #Mastodon a proper go this time, but it's hard to connect with people when no-one follows you, and hashtags only get you so far. 😞

So, if you like one of the hashtags below, please consider following me, and if you do, I'll follow you back! Thank you. 💗

Are there any first reactions regarding the Online Safety Act in the UK and the Fediverse? I can imagine that this will have an enormous impact with shut downs or unreachable server in the UK.

A little break from my recent Scotland photography run.

With the recent trend of murky, overcast and windless conditions here, we enjoyed a stroll around the Ingleborough Estate Nature Trail in Clapham, to capture the last of this year's autumn colours. 👍

#landscape #landscapephotography #nature #travel #yorkshiredales #northyorkshire #yorkshire #uk #britain #england #autumn #fall

A peaceful autumn woodland path through the Ingleborough Estate shows walkers strolling beneath a natural canopy of beech trees, their leaves displaying brilliant shades of amber and gold. The well-maintained gravel path, carpeted with fallen leaves, stretches into the misty distance whilst tall, grey-barked trees stand sentinel on either side, creating a tranquil tunnel effect that frames both the lone walker in the foreground and the small group of ramblers ahead. A moss-covered stone bridge with curved walls leads to traditional Yorkshire stone cottages in the village of Clapham, whilst two walkers pause on the path ahead. The narrow footbridge, dusted with autumn leaves, curves gently upward between weathered walls topped with verdant moss, creating a charming scene typical of Yorkshire Dales architecture, with the grey-stone houses and their distinctive sash windows providing a quintessentially British backdrop.
A stone footpath strewn with autumn leaves winds its way through verdant woodland towards a dramatic waterfall, which cascades through an ancient stone arch bridge in the Yorkshire Dales. The stepped path, bordered by a wooden handrail and lush vegetation, leads viewers' eyes naturally to the tumbling white waters of Clapham Beck as it flows through multiple tiers beneath the weathered stonework, whilst the surrounding trees display the golden hues of autumn. A dreamy woodland scene captures the essence of autumn in the Yorkshire Dales, where Japanese maples display vibrant coral-red leaves amongst the yellowing foliage of native trees. The misty atmosphere softens the forest's depths, whilst the rough-barked trunk of a silver birch stands prominently in the foreground, creating a striking contrast with the ethereal blend of emerald, amber and crimson leaves that dance throughout the composition.


#Palestine / Spain’s prime minister says he will propose that parliament recognizes a Palestinian state

[…] “I will propose granting #Spain’s recognition to the Palestinian state, […] I do this out of moral conviction, for a just cause and because it is the only way that the two states, Israel and #Palestine, can live together in peace.”

[…] Spain demanded “respect for international law from Russia, and from Israel, for the violence to end, the recognition of two states, and for humanitarian aid to reach Gaza.”

Pedro Sánchez follows #France’s Macron and #UK’s Cameron, who signaled their country’s interest in promoting a similar initiative.

If you’re a British taxpayer, you can at least rest assured that some of your money was going to compensate the victims of British slavery as recently as 2015.

Sorry, did I say compensate the victims? I meant compensate the slave holders.
