Before and after lockdown haircut!
Last cut was in August 2019 😱
It might have taken 30 years and sometimes it’s still a battle but I can confidently say I love my hair now, all thanks to @michaelprice_unrulycurls for working his amazing magic 💫

Still hands down the most spectacular thing I have

Still hands down the most spectacular thing I have ever seen.
This is the world’s largest lava lake - at the top of Nyiragongo volcano in the DR Congo.
I consider myself extremely lucky that I got to see it. Not many do and even fewer now for obvious reasons.
Dreaming of the day when we can travel freely to places like this again 🌋

It’s World Environment Day, so what better excuse to share an image of one of our most precious and fragile environments, looking spectacularly beautiful in the glow of the setting sun.
This photo was taken off Coronation Island in the South Orkneys, Antarctica.
How many penguins can you spot? 😂

A leopard seal dozes on an iceberg in Antarctica.

A leopard seal dozes on an iceberg in Antarctica. He may look cute now, but these guys are one of the most fearsome predators in the ocean and the only seals that hunt not only fish but warm-blooded prey too, including other seals.

Have you figured out your zoom setup yet?
.
I’ve been hating doing video calls because I can’t bear to look at myself with no makeup and unwashed hair! It helps if you make an effort with your appearance of course, but sadly there’s nothing I can do about those roots 🙈
.
Then think about your setup. Try to get the camera to as close to eye to level as possible - put the computer on a stack of books if necessary.
.
The best light is soft window light so a table facing a window like I have here is ideal, but avoid having harsh direct sunlight on your face.
.
Then finally think about the background - being able to see the room is better than a blank wall but make sure there’s nothing untoward in the back of shot (next time I will close the bathroom door a little more!)
.
Where’s your favourite spot in the house for video calls?
