Polar bears are such a bellweather for the changes we humans have wrought to the planet … magnificent photography of them in their natural surrounds shows just why we should protect them! Thank you for reading and for the kind words. Off for a pedal in the rain!

Loving the street art images! This is a great reminder to find pleasure in things right before our eyes instead of walking on by while thinking of other things... I'm going to look out for some local street art this weekend!

I was on a lovely slow Sunday morning meander around Montmartre … no place to be at any particular time - a gift to myself. Slowing down, noticing more. Have fun looking out for street art. Hope to see some pics.

Hmmm… that would be interesting Substack Newsletter showing archives from the past and adding new art. People could also send you some photos to include in your newsletter.
