I like the #SilentSunday trend...did not know it was a thing until a few minutes ago. Sweet.
Change and decay
Life and death
Comma butterfly probably newly emerged from its pupa silently sips on the juice of an apple in advanced stage of decay

I took this photo while walking the dogs around the village one evening recently.
While my phone and its camera are old and busted the sunlight at least was perfect.

As the shade of the nearby tree vanished with the rising sun, so did this dazzling display of dew. #SilentSunday

Centuries-old silence & tranquillity by the river Avon at Charlecote, upstream from Stratford. Tomorrow we visit the old mill at Charlecote & our friendly miller, to buy freshly ground flour for my bread-making.

We often thank people for writing image descriptions here. And we should; they're awesome! So please consider this post as only applying to those awesome folks who describe their images, and those who only do not because of their own disabilities, especially if they use imagecaptionspls@a.gup.pe or the Alt4You hashtag instead:
Thank you, too, to those of you who properly tag your posts. If you use any of the below hashtags (and I hope you can forgive me for pinging them this once), thanks! Or, of course, any other image-related hashtags that I just haven't encountered yet!
They give your post more reach, of course, and that's very useful to artists. But they also make your post easily filterable. This means that sometimes, when there is a little too much of everything, I can temporarily lessen the amount of images on my timeline.
Please do not take this as proof that image descriptions are useless. They're not! I for one still very much enjoy them. There's a reason why #Caturday, #CatsOfMastodon, #DogsOfMastodon, etc. are not in the below list, though tagging those is still great! It's because I cannot imagine a day when I'd feel overwhelmed by cute animal pic descriptions.
But ... while I often want to be a part of your world, there are days when I don't feel like it. When I'd rather enjoy the text that is common to all of us, the reason I came here. Or perhaps all the cool audio stuff my friends are posting (which should also be described and hashtagged for deaf and hard of hearing folks!) Filtering allows me to do that on a platform that doesn't support blocking media, while still recieving some images that I *am* interested in, and not having to mute any of you wonderful people.
I know "thank you for letting me filter and ignore your stuff" is not the kindest statement, but ... yeah, still.

@semanthis ich denke schon, dass das geht. Möglicherweise ist die Schwelle höher, weil Hashtags nur der föderierten Timeline trenden können, aber grundsätzlich funktioniert das schon.
Auf den Instanzen aller in diesem Thread Beteiligten trendet z. B. gerade #silentsunday. #twitterdown trendet auf allen außer floss.social und #introduction auf allen außer troet.cafe.

#SilentSunday Well, it was meant to be. But earlier on, my usual hour in the #quaker meeting was anything but. It was a trial run in a new venue on an urban main street, on a hot summer Sunday. It sounded like every biker in N Wales was riding & roaring through the town. So much for Thich Nhat Hanh’s advice, to let the sounds I hear draw me into stillness. 😖
Now I’m back to our quiet country lane, & the musk mallow flowers filling the hedgerows.

#SilentSunday spent on the slopes of the Clwydians, heading upwards towards Moel Arthur in the distance. But our elderly whippet Meg is unsure she wants to do this……..
