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

I was recently in New Zealand, this is a photo that shows the blue pools in the mount aspiring national Park. The water is the bluest/clearest I've ever seen.

It wasn't my favourite place In new Zealand, nor the prettiest, but the water is so incredibly blue

I have a project at a former surface mine/quarry and saw an area where recent rain eroded away sediment surrounding the gravel but not directly under it. Each rock was supported by its own column.

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:

Got to play with the water thrower on a TLF in less than ideal weather conditions. Got a nice picture out of it though and hot soup later, so all was fine.

Cut up a tomato today only to be greeted with vivipary, which cause of the recent popular lemmy post, prompted me to actually plant it in some soil. 🤞 Hopefully I get something worthy of a post.

  • by HIDAKA, Rieko

Sadly I do not remember the name of the author anymore, but when I saw this artwork in the National Museum of Modern Art (MOMAT) in Tokyo I just had to save it (also to show some of my artsy friends ^^).

Now obviously this is a digital image of it, but you are not looking at a digital image of a print of a digital image! I.e. all of that was painted, by hand, onto those canvases!

Edit: Added Artist after someone did the obvious and reverse image searched it, thanks by the way!

First hot cross bun batch of the season (Paul Hollywood's recipe). We didn't end up doing the crosses (they taste like crap anyway lol) so more like hot heathen buns, but delicious none the less 😁

This is my girl Hennifer Lopez, about a month ago when the northeast got that big blizzard.

Idk if she got into a fight or if this was just some late molting, but either way, those pin-feathers look badass.

First time in my life, I got to stop through the Kennedy Space Center on our way home from Florida. Its been a dream of mine to see a rocket launch from there and unfortunately I don’t have the time available to go down and see Artemis 2 launch in person as our vacation was last week… but I DID get to see her standing proud on the platform!

One day I’ll get to see it fly in person… one day 😊

The bike, an old Chiang Jiang CJ750, belonging to a good friend of mine needed some work. It was down on power, hard to start and had some electrical gremlins. I made a new wiringharness as the old wires were pinched and grounding out all sorts of places and gave it a new starter relay, the old one were only rated for 6 volts and would stick on from time to time. The carbs got cleaned and the valves adjusted. Now it runs like a champ and starts better than most new cars.
