Personal photography
This is a sculpture installation in Aberdeen on the dune overlooking the sea. I don’t know if it’s still there, it was taken many years ago.
It’s made out of granite because everything is in Aberdeen (the grey city where even rainbows are monochrome).

I’ve been thinking for a good while about what I miss when I look at people’s posts. We all enjoy looking at photos people publish, and we can favourite and we can boost.
