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 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.

          Count yourself lucky. Southern New Mexico wines are without a doubt the worst, sweetest wines in the world. They get a little better in northern New Mexico, but still not quite good.

            Ah yeah I remember that from when I lived there, got local wine once and never again. I thought you were gonna say they had a recall for making people sick or something lol
