1. Black and white. A woman with a boy toddler in the rain at London's Piccadilly Circus, standing on the steps of the Eros statue. The woman is facing to the left, a couple of steps down from the boy, holding his left hand with her right, while he is facing the viewer. At the bottom of the steps, in the foreground, is a pram-style buggy with bags on the handle and a plastic cover over unseen items on the seat.

1. A cluster of begonia flowers in white, red, and pink. The 'petals' of the begonia are actually sepals.

2. Japanese Anemones, eight-petalled pink flowers, each with a ring of yellow stamens. There are about three dozen of them, with some tall blue speedwell amongst them.

1. Black and white. Four young women sitting on a bench made of a concrete block, eating food that's in a white paper wrapper. Their hands are in different positions relative to their mouths, the rightmost about a foot away, next to the left about six inches, the next left about an inch, and the leftmost woman is biting into hers.

1. High contrast black and white image of a mostly shadowed area under scaffolding, with the wall of a building on the right and a temporary wooden wall on the left, about five feet apart. There is a wooden plank walkway above, a stack of poles leaning up at an angle in the middle distance, and a light on the wooden wall. The scaffolding comes down so low that it's difficult to see how one would get through to the steps at the end that descend to a lower street level. In the dim shadows about ten feet away a man can be seen standing on the right, looking at his phone. On the street at the lower level, perhaps sixty or seventy feet away, another man is walking away from the steps.

1. A colour photo of a woman sitting outside a cafe eating some kind of tart, probably fruit, and enjoying it, eyes closed and with rapt attention. She is sitting behind a large pink sign saying, "Be Strong". People can be seen sitting inside the cafe and other people are reflected from the street. The expressions on their faces could, with a bit of imagination, be seen as a reaction to the woman's enjoyment.

A high contrast black and white photo of a number of people sitting on stone bench seats looking up at a large video wall, showing a kaleidoscope of rectangular images that keep changing, showing people, patterns, scenes of various kinds, many of which have Instagram or Spotify logos in the corner.

1. A high contrast black and white photo of a man walking past a wine bar in London's Covent Garden area. A large part of the wall is a street art mural of two women's faces looking out at the viewer. Below them are two wide windows, the one on the right giving a view of a counter with lamps, plates, and so on. The left one has the text, "Damn Yankee est 2024. Wine Bar. Merchant. Purveyors of American Fine Wines and Spirits. @damnyankeewine". The bar appears to be closed at 4:30 on a May afternoon.

A rich colour photo of a young woman wearing a black t-shirt with a rainbow-coloured string vest over the top, a silver-coloured necklace with a lightning bolt pendant on the end, highly reflective sunglasses in the shape of double flames, and a rainbow-coloured headscarf with a central daisy motif. In the middle of forehead is a colourful beaded butterfly-shaped ornament in pink, white, blue, and red. She has black hair and eyebrows.

Does Mastodon have groups?
That depends on what you mean. If you mean like forums, then no. But if you mean like G+ Groups, i.e. lists of people you follow, then yes it does. They're called Lists, and you'll find them in the Getting Started tab at the far right of Mastodon's web interface. So, how do you use them? Well, here's the thing…
