Happy (belated) new year everyone! Enjoying the night sky / southern lights here in NZ, and really enjoying my new photography hobby. Though it did take me about an hour to warm back up in the tent at 3am!

To balance out the first tweet I have done in a while, which was work related, I inadvertently taught my dog to side eye on a hiking trip. I am enjoying life @UCNZ @UCNZ_PhysChem immensely.

Kudos to the team @ThomasDBennett, @HorikeGroup, @DrJohnmauro, @MMSmedskjaer and Lothar Wondraczek. Probably the best review article and perspective about MOF glasses at the time. nature.com/articles/s41557-0…

After (almost!) 20 years at the University of Cambridge, today is my last day before moving to @UCNZ later this month. 30 seconds in and I already have something in my eye after this momento from my friend Susan.

I rarely post now at the moment, but i met the fantastic @wilder_action today @WimpoleEstateNT, who was kind enough to show me some of his fantastic wildlife action images and chat about photography. My shot on a mobile of albie tonight didn't quite cut the mustard!
