Creative coding, web dev, art, photography and drawing. I love monster horror and Sci-Fi audiobooks.

Beautiful. A heron and kingfisher on the Water of Leith in Edinburgh.
Zoom on my mobile is fantastic but I should start taking my DSLR and long lenses.

Here’s a different video of the storm in Edinburgh with the lightning slowed down to 1/4 speed. Hope X doesn’t nerf quality.
Not sure how it works but is that the same streak that starts in the bottom left and moves from left to right through the clouds?

Crazy lightning storm over Edinburgh at the moment.
This view shows the sky behind St Mary’s and the castle light up.

The cherry blossom in the meadows is looking beautiful at the moment. It’s a pity it won’t be here much longer.

@JosephKahn True for some (including me), but there are so many social layers in Britain. Geographical and the class system weirdly still exists.

@RealGDT I would love to see this. It would be amazing if it went on tour and came to Edinburgh.
It was so cool to see how you guys used the city.

So much fun - I've just vibe coded a game using Gemini 3. Inspired by Pac-man but in 3D on a Tiny Planet.
I've struggled with cameras and controllers with @threejs before but this was so easy.
Try the game here: https://t.co/HsAatUuSWl
Maybe time to add a leaderboard and then some more features.
Soundtrack made with @suno!

An otter on the Water of Leith this morning, just below Modern One. It always brightens my mood to see them along there.

There's a beautiful Henry Moore sculpture being lowered into the spot where the Paolozzi used to sit in front of Modern Two @NatGalleriesSco
I think it may be the one that was behind Modern One until a few years ago.

We took the children to see an amazing group of acrobats from Revolution Circus at Dynamic Earth. Great performance and amazing venue for it.

[Tom Clive @TomClive]

@ProfBrianCox Yeah. My feed is full of debates about the danger of stray dogs in India.
Not sure if this is suddenly a huge concern for everyone or if I watched a couple of vids about rescued strays and it's labelled me.

@Fred34215511 @RobertLindsay A bit like this one about the Nation of Islam? https://t.co/p2D1lwKAvY

I'm never not amused when the place with 48,204 gun-related deaths per year tells the place with 244 knife deaths per year that they need guns to deal with their knife problem.

Awesome. I saw an otter on the Water of Leith in Edinburgh this morning. Just upstream from Dean Village.
I've seen him a few times before but managed to get my phone out in time today.

@kentcdodds I can't remember not enjoying the company of my children. Yep, it's difficult when they're really small, but it's exciting to see that early development.
(These pics were taken 10 years apart!)

Beautiful sunrise in Edinburgh this morning.

[Tom Clive @TomClive]

Water of Leith looking very full at Dean Village this morning!

[Tom Clive @TomClive]

The Water of Leith below Modern One Gallery was beautiful this morning in the frost.
I also saw an otter above Dean Village weir but didn't catch it with my camera.
On days like this, I feel grateful to live in Edinburgh.

[Tom Clive @TomClive]

Winter has definitely hit Edinburgh. We've started waking up to frost.

[Tom Clive @TomClive]

@JasonManford @celtic_dan90 Incredible game. Even hanging out in the bars playing poker was a good way to unwind.

[Tom Clive @TomClive]

Autumn is one of my favourite times of year to wander around the gardens of #modernone @NatGalleriesSco
I love seeing how sculpture can change with its environment.
