How did #UnivofStAndrews benefit from, participate in, or support, British colonialism? Our report 'The University of St Andrews and the legacies of empire, 1700-1900' is now available https://legacies-of-empire.wp.st-andrews.ac.uk/

The detail of our findings may be of most interest to those closely associated with #standrews #Fife and #Tayside, or #Scotland; but I hope that our approach will be of interest to a wider audience. #history #histodons

A lifeguard tower sits on a sandy beach under a foggy sky, with a few people walking along the shore in the distance. Grass dunes line the left side of the image. There is a fog hanging over the sea, or haar as it’s known in Scotland.

A wood pigeon sitting on brown leaf-covered green grass, facing to the left of the picture, and seen in close up in the right half. Behind it is a dark shadowy area. The bird is grey, with purple/pink and white bits.

A buzzard perched on a wooden electricity pylon, with a blue/grey sky behind. The bird is facing mostly towards us, and is mostly dark brown, with a white chest area, and white markings elsewhere.

A portrait orientation photo looking towards the arch of an old railway viaduct, high in the middle of the picture against a blue sky. Below is a dark river, with the sky and arch reflected in it. To the sides and in front are autumnal coloured trees.

Aurora borealis / northern lights photos from my husband tonight. Faint earlier, but much more visible later - very clear with the naked eye, even though we're on the edge of a city, in east Dundee, Scotland. A marvellous display of colour and rays all over the sky. #Astronomy #Space #Aurora #AuroraBorealis #NorthernLights #Scotland #Dundee #Angus #Tayside #Photography

A mass of bright red to the left, bright green all over the right. And coloured rays shooting up vertically into the sky.

A fiery sky with a glowing orange/red area in mid right/centre, almost like a burning fire, surrounded by masses of green. Vertical rays also visible.

A green sky with bright red rays shooting down and across it from the upper middle part of the picture

A calmer sky, with red in the left half, and green to the right. Diagonal rays - orange and green - shoot across starting from a point in the upper mid picture.

Reflections on Broughty Ferry. This is a reworked version of an earlier post. The crop isn’t as tight on this version showing more of the reflected windows on the opposite wall. There’s a red filter applied to the mono conversion which darkened the blue areas of the sky.
