I'm beyond excited to announce that my second book, 'The Magic of an Irish Rainforest: A Visual Journey', goes on sale this September. A photographic exploration and celebration of rainforests from Beara to north Antrim, it'll take the reader to other, exquisite, dimensions. 🌍

The salmon farmers love to say that Scotland has some of the highest regulations in the world. Even if it was true, lucky for them no one enforces them. Thank you Feargal Sharkey for speaking out about SEPA

I’m very surprised to see this reporting. Burning something created from petrochemicals - like plastic - is definitely not a climate friendly, or sustainable, fuel.

A lot of molecular and cell and developmental biology is concerned with figuring out the "functions" of various proteins. I'm starting to distrust that formulation...

BREAKING: The Lancet backs UNAIDS call on Gilead to drop the price & share the tech for the new HIV prevention medicine that only needs two injections a year. Their Editorial demands “the price will need to be a lot lower” and warns “the world is watching to see how Gilead acts.”

These are photos from my Instagram account from *last* summer. I haven’t seen a single red or orange butterfly in Dublin 7 this year. Not a Peacock butterfly, not a Tortoiseshell, not a Red Admiral. I’ve only seen one red butterfly *anywhere* this summer. Sad & worrying.

In 1968, Sidney Poitier was at a press conference at the height of his career. He made it very clear how he felt about the press. Funny that I had to find this on a discarded film reel with 1000s of books, Microfiche and films. Now you can see it.

There are now papers showing that the migration of academic communities from Twitter to other social media sites mostly failed. But they never fully returned to Twitter either. I wonder if we will ever see so many different communities interacting in the same online space again.

This is quite possibly the first cover of The Atlantic magazine ever (in 167 years!) to be published without a headline or typography describing the stories inside. Here is The Atlantic's October cover:
