Happy (non-leap-year) birthday to our Gallowglass, the incomparable Steven Cree!
We assume you'll be celebrating in traditional Gallowglass fashion: a quick 100 press ups before curling up with a good book.

When the gateway shadows give the All Souls twin towers a run for their money - thanks to the bright February sunlight working its magic.

The bigger view to the windows at the top of the stairs and the butterfly case on the left - sunlight and shadows at the Museum of Natural History on Saturday.

The imposing Victorian glass and cast iron roof of the Museum of Natural History - held up by columns decorated with ironwork in the spandrels representing branches of tree species including sycamore, walnut and palm.

Gallowglass is flipping us the bird

The photo with the shadow is nice and artsy.

All the photos are cool. I like the one with the cool roof.

debharkness I know that there is so much going on in the world right now that things feel off-axis and tilted. My heart goes out to Ukraine and her people. I took this picture because it is the beginning of #ovariancancerawarenessmonth and my own world feels a bit skew-whiffy too. (Don't know if this is a real word but my mom always says it!) It's a reminder for me that we will--like the palm trees behind me that grow towards the sun and are a bit skew-whiffy themselves--settle into a new normal one day, that clouds pass, and that love and life prevail--in spite of war, disease, death, bullies, and gaslighting. Just hang in there.

I really hope she is able to pull through this. And she wrote a beautiful message.

Prayers for Deborah to beat cancer and recover.

Rainy walk home yesterday evening - umbrellas and golden lamplight reflections beneath the Bridge of Sighs.

Raining in England, must be a day that ends in Y

Sir Thomas Bodley, founder of the Bodleian Library in 1602, was born on this day in 1545. Here is the Tower of the Five Orders reflected in windows of the Old Schools Quadrangle.

The bigger picture - with the Japanese Quince framing the view of the Jackson Building at Trinity on a rather grey March morning.
