Theme: cooler than expected
Rules: no NSFW and has to be a snap you took yourself.
I think we should make themes optional so if you have a pic you want to post that doesn't fit, you still can, what does everyone else think?

Here's a photo I took inside a car wash

Neat! Looks like you are under the ocean.

It makes me think of waves breaking on the shore. Perhaps the old route out of Wellington with the road next to the sea and the waves that sometimes broke over the wall onto the road. The green is like an ominous stormy sky from a story book, and the darker bit between the lighter top and the waves at the bottom is like the swell of the sea. There's probably a monster in the water.

You could totally write kids' books.

You actually don't have to, most publishers want to pick the illustrator themselves so they just want you to send them the words part.

Interesting! If only I enjoyed fighting against the odds to get my 32 line story seen by an agent in order for the small royalty cheque that goes mostly to the illustrator that is much more well known than I so gets the bigger cut!

True, true, the only way to make money seems to be self publish and for that you need space for a garage full of books!
I'm not sure what it's like these days but NZ was always so small we don't really need an agent for local publishers, though.

Super atmospheric. I love the bit of light on the rhs it kind of suggests the contrast of a cosy house with the street.

Thanks, not sure what the light on the right was

Gorgeous! I haven't been there in years, I don't remember it being so flowery!

Here's a photo I took recently:
I think this is a good idea. Got something cool to share? Just share it. Prefer the challenge of a theme? We got you covered.

I love the light shining through the trees and sky. Is it a river, or a pond?

This is the Manawatū River Loop, which I'm only just realising is some weird side loop that comes off the river and back on. It passes next to Foxton, and the photo is taken from near the River Loop Reserve Playground, which I'm told has the best slide in the world, but that was just one kid's opinion.
I will attempt to link to the place on Open Street Map, hopefully this works: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/1296553394

It does work. That loop is so strange, I like it!
