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)

20°F back home but swimming weather here. May not look unusual but the tiki hut is built with an actual thatched palm roof in a traditional manner by the local indigenous people

Here is a Ban!

It's the Romanian cent (Bani in plural).

You saw it, now you're banned.

1968 Chrysler Wagon.

Finally had a bit of time this weekend, started replacing the main seal for the rear differential so that it would hold oil. Got the whole thing apart only to realize I had ordered the wrong seal. So, going to be up on jackstands for another week. On the upside, gave me time to replace the rear shocks and also do an oil change.

I was at IETF in Shenzhen a couple weeks ago and made my way over to Huaqiangbei where the tech malls are. I expected the cheap consumer electronics, not the floor after floor of capacitors, chips, wiring, batteries, etc. Makers dream.

An ominous building, lit by red light, in Salisbury

It's actually a old church that got converted to a charity-run art gallery

Manhattan-bound 7 Train @ 46th Street. It was early evening and snapped a nice pic before it pulled out.

One dear friend points out a patch of sunlight -refracted through champagne in a plastic glass on top of a trig point - she wants in the picture I'm about to take during a birthday remembrance moment for another much loved friend. It was a beautiful day. Harboro Rocks, Derbyshire, UK.

[–] FellowEnt@sh.itjust.works 1 points 15 hours ago

Harboro is up there in my top 10 rocky outcrops. You have good taste in rocky outcrops and good friends. Thanks for sharing.

Here's a rainbow that is close enough for the trees across the street to appear behind it.

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

Not the best photo, but here's a stray cat sleeping on top of another stray cat.

I'm painting an iron maiden for my misbehaving dice. Had to share it with my TTRPG group.

just a pic of a plant from my balcony

Not sure if that one counts... here's a non-cat photo

[–] JennaR8r@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago)

Here's the most recent photo in my camera roll 🤷🏼‍♀️. In fact it's the ONLY photo currently on my camera roll since I moved everything to my external hard drive a couple days ago to free up memory.

I've taken aboout 3300 photos this month apparently... so I'm going to post a few and there's definitely more I can find.

So I caught this flying past the other day, an Atlas I believe

This is one of the Barbary Macaques from the recent zoo trip.

Some kites and various corvids were fighting over food in the bear and wolf enclosure at the same zoo. Not a great picture technically-speaking but the only one of the moment the kite went for something.

Saw these cute cotton candies at the mall the other day.

My dog is a goofball. When he lost his puppy teeth, one didn’t grow back and his tongue flops out sometimes.
