Can you show us a cool photo you took recently? We wanna see what you found cool enough to take a photo of. We usually take photos of things we’re interested in or are unique enough to put into a reference folder we have for art and well we’re wondering if anyone had any good photos to share! :3

Thank you!

Also the photo on this post we put up is a train we saw in the Train museum here in Spain! We had so much fun and think this would have to be the one of the more impressive ones (tho not our favorite haha)

Edit: Hoi peeps!! We love all these photos and this post got WAY more popular than expected haha! We’re wanting to reply to everyone, but it’s gonna take some time - so we’re not ignoring you and if we accidentally miss you aaaaa we’re sorry (there’s just so much @w@)! Thank you again everyone, this has been lovely seeing all these cool af pics!! :D

      Woah, Spiders are probably our favorite tiny critters (mostly cuz they eat bugs which we hate Rahhh!) but their webs are so neatly spun too, we’d get too dizzy even thinking about trying it lmao

        His name is Hannibal Barka and he is a poodle/Aussie cattle dog mix. He’s an affectionate little cuddle bug and can jump like a kangaroo.

    We were hit with a nasty ice storm a few weeks ago and I found this lichen in the yard after. It’s like a nature made snow globe.

    Top of Mailbox Peak. These birds were everywhere. I assume due to people sharing food when they hit the top.

    I generally don’t take a lot of photos besides things I need to grab at the store, so he’s the worlds largest pistachio in Alamogordo, NM from when my wife and I went down there to visit friends and sight see in January.

        Lots of the “worlds largest” attractions in America are made to gain tourist attention, like the worlds largest picnic basket, pistachio, etc. They’re usually in areas people wouldn’t normally go. This one is at PistachioLand, which is a large pistachio farm near White Sands National Park, so it’s not necessarily in the middle of nowhere (but maybe a little). They do make a lot of really good pistachio based snacks. Different flavor roasted nuts, pistachio ice cream, red and green chili based foods like jerky or jams. It’s definitely a tourist trap but the nuts they make are good, local and not from Wonderful Pistachios which has terrible quality control and less flavor options.

        If anyone here ever heads down to see White Sands, definitely try the garlic or green chili roasted pistachios there.

          Once USA becomes safe to visit, we have so many bucket list stuff to do there including a long train trip where we stay at some key spots for a bit to camp and enjoy plenty of sights :>

            Once USA becomes safe to visit

            But that’s 2045. I’m not camping at 70! I’ll be making my own pilgrimage to hanauma bay to remember my uncle and, by then, my mum; and probably that’s it for travel at that age.

    It’s been a while since I took a picture.

    Some context for this otherwise mundane photo:

    This is on a college campus.

    This man does not work for Grounds.

    This was his transportation to a community event.

    A bear-safe venison storing shack, typical from the North of Finland, moved and rebuilt in an open-air museum in Helsinki

        Helsinki is the gift I give myself every year FIR my birthday, this one was my Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy one, so I made it special with a local guide showing me Kaurismäki movie locations, bronze age burial mounds and Seurasaari.

      We’ve seen some anti bear food storage before and that one takes the cake for being the prettiest one we’ve seen! Usually at the camp sights we visited growing up you had to do a pull levy rope system to bring a metal box up and down from the ground and nothing ever fancy like that! :O

    I like to go hiking in remote, less-traveled parts of the bush. I found these motorcycle boots discarded in a random area. There was other junk around too. In all my hiking, there was 3 times I thought I might find a body or shallow grave, and this was one of them.

    Here is a big ol’ spider that I almost walked into,:

    And a cluster of caterpillars taking shelter from the rain:
