Finally got round to get all my RIAT edits on Flickr, and thought I'd post some favourites from the weekend. First time doing 5 days there (Thurs-Mon), and some days were a washout, some were a bit sunny (at least not as hot as 2022!!) and with just under 3 months to go, I thought now would be a good time to look back. 
I tried to be harsh on what I showed here, as I've got 560 edits in the Flickr album, and I do favour departures day out of them all! Feel free to look through the Flickr album
