Local was released a year ago this week. I'm delighted to see it's still doing well. If you haven't read it, please would consider giving it a try in 2025? Even better idea: buy your local Ordnance Survey map and go search for some nearby nature and wildness this year...

In case you missed this earlier today. #ACityToShare #ICYMI
Pls share to help reunite this full pannier with the cyclist who's dropped it on their way through Portsmouth recently. The contents make me think it's a tourist who'll be particularly keen to get their bag returned. If (you think) it's yours, get in touch via DM

One of the things in the bag is a pair of Airpods and I've just realised I can charge them and hope the owner has "Find My" activated.

Someone has painted a Fuji digital camera entirely white *including the rear screen* and then, seemingly on discovering that it no longer works, donated it to charity where it's now on sale for £4 thus making an early submission for @TatTrove's Tat of the Week.

South Yorkshire Police are pursuing a court order that will compel me to provide them with all my photographs, taken during a day of far-right violence in Rotherham. I cannot comply with this request. Here's why. 🧵/1

HELP! Freelance photojournalist here. I need a criminal law solicitor well-versed in media and police to help defend me against a production order.
Given that South Yorkshire Police are piling pressuring on me to hand them photos of far-right violence from Rotherham - something which I will use every legal means to resist - I appreciate this timely intervention from the NUJ

I've followed the talk about this book since the crowdfunder was announced. Received a copy yesterday and am so happy to have done so- a real quality production with superb imagery and wonderful text. Final product is so much more than I'd imagined from the build-up- superb!

I set out to cycle through every grid square on my local map: a 300 mile journey squashed into a 20km x 20km map. I loved this ride - maybe you could try it yourself? Here's an audio slideshow about how I got on: https://t.co/hzPEpKlVMd
