All the colours of the Autumn in technicolour Instagram


A cold and grey Autumn morning sees me making my way out into the world again. In Norway the trees that still have some semblance of leafiness are brown and shutting down, unless they are already stark and bare. Great opportunities for shameless comparisons with tweed and colourful wool garments. Due to other commitments last week only saw the single…

Waistcoat controversy on Instagram!


Friday just isn’t the same without my little weekly round-up of all that is good and not so good in the world, right? Where else do you have the opportunity of enjoying a finely curated selection of thirteen prime photographic captures from the Instagram account of what Esquire magazine selected as one of the 20 most stylish men on Instagram.…

How many Instagrams to a kilogram?


Welcome back to another of my weekly compilations of Instagram output. After an unusually warm and pleasant Autumn we now have proper weather with a vengeance, lots of vicious winds and drenching downpour. Great times for chaps with good jackets. The inclement weather and short days have made it more difficult than usual to stage my incredibly advanced photo sessions, but I…

The opportunities of Autumn, a pictorial


Oh yes, Autumn is definitely here now. After a month of teasing the weather has finally started it’s journey towards winter. It’s as if the trees all suddenly got the memo about yellow and brown being the new green and have all decided to get with the programme. Plus a drop in temperature and plenty of rain to go with…

The week that was, in photos


This week saw me round up the Great Shaving Cream Investigation. Finally! The winner(s) have been announced, the results presented in tabular form, and wise observations uttered regarding the deeper meaning of it all. This week also saw the arrival of a singular waistcoat all the way from Japan. Opinion on this one is divided, with WDG on one side…

A collection of Instagrammar


And before I know what has happened, it’s Friday again and time for the weekly collection of what I posted to my Instagram over the past week. To add some flavour this weeks adventures include cows, hedgehogs and ecologically grown vegetables. Just when you thought there couldn’t be more snaps of buttons, boots and fabrics, I up my game with more fun…

The week that was, Instagrammatically


Oh my, it’s back again, that weekly roundup of my wrongdoings on Instagram. Or rightdoings, judging my the number of regular like-clickers that honour me with their well-directed presses of the Like-button. In any case, another Autumnal week with the chilly mornings requiring full wool, jacket, hat and gloves, and the sunny afternoons requiring all the warm gear being backpacked…

That weekly Instagram collection again…


A briefer collection of Instagram images than usual this week. After a stumbling start, where I actually didn’t post anything for a couple of days at all, I got back in to my stride towards the end of the week. I aim for at least one image a day, sometimes two, and very rarely three. Lots of new posts in…

You’ll never believe what this guy did all week


Yep, I’ve done it as well. Gone and titles my post using one of these new-fangled, scientifically proven, click-bait headlines designed to suck in massive numbers of readers. In an ironic way, of course, as I absolutely detest both what they are trying to do, and how they read to a poor chap looking for some relevant news in the online…

Instagrammed and documented


Another week that was. This one saw me head to London, walk around a lot, talk to many people, see many interesting things and return home again. Really quite eventful, hence more photos than usual. Also many details observed, both small and large. Some have been added to the images. Sorry this collection arrives a couple of days later than…
