Black and white photograph shot on Ilford HP5 with a Hasselblad in Shetland, showing a rough stone-walled enclosure in the foreground, surrounded by windswept grassland. In the background, a small flock of sheep grazes across the gently sloping field under a cloudy sky.

"The first computer game to receive an 18 age certificate, on 11 December 1987, was another illustrated text adventure called Jack the Ripper, also by CRL, which dealt with the infamous real life murders in Victorian London."

Ah, the horror of text adventures those days.

Black-and-white long exposure photograph of a small waterfall flowing over rugged rocks in Galloway Forest, Scotland, taken on Kodak TMax film with a Hasselblad camera. The smooth, silky water contrasts with the sharp textures of the rocks and surrounding vegetation.

Went to see Weapons in IMAX, and towards the end during a particularly tense horror moment someone become unwell - they paused the whole film, brought up the lights and let that person out. Everyone else treated this as a welcome bathroom break.

Pastoral landscape near the Cairngorms, shot on Kodak Ektar 100 with a Mamiya RB67. Rolling hills with green and golden fields stretch into the distance under a cloudy sky. A line of trees separates the fields, and a wooden telephone pole stands among dense greenery and wild grasses in the foreground.

Black and white photograph of a rugged Irish coastline, with sharp, angular rock formations in the foreground and choppy waves crashing against them. In the distance, a small island with a lighthouse stands under a dramatic, cloud-filled sky. Shot on Kodak TMax film with a Hasselblad camera.

A layered landscape photograph taken on Kodak Ektar 100 film with a Mamiya RB67, capturing a moody, overcast scene in the Scottish Highlands. In the foreground, a small reflective loch is surrounded by dense woodland and moorland. The midground features lush green fields and rolling hills, leading to a wide estuary or sea loch. In the distance, towering mist-covered mountains rise under a dramatic sky heavy with dark clouds.

Photograph taken on Kodak Gold film with a Hasselblad camera, showing an intricately carved stone Celtic cross monument in the town centre of Inveraray, Scotland. The cross is framed by iron railings in the foreground, with white Georgian-style buildings lining both sides of the street and a neoclassical church at the end of the road under a partly cloudy sky.

A vintage red and black puffer boat named "Vital Spark" sits on the muddy shore at low tide in Inveraray, Scotland. The boat is moored beside a stone quay, with green hills and calm waters of Loch Fyne in the background under a cloudy sky. The image was shot on Kodak Gold film using a Hasselblad camera, giving it a warm, nostalgic tone and fine detail.
