The Interesting Pictures Thread

I thought about this one day when I didn't have my camera with me, and saw a pickup load of pay telephones being loaded out of the telephone company's local warehouse.....for scrap.

Anyway, when we started the Ponca City house, I passed this a few times and thought I would start this thread off with something interesting. So anyone else, if you see something interesting, post it..... Post only pictures you have taken, nothing ripped somewhere else, or photo shop art.

Oral Roberts University praying hands, I'm an atheist but if there was a god I think he could see these from outerspace.

I wish I still had the pictures I took of the house that some framers built right before a wind storm. No sheathing anywhere except the roof. When I drove by after the whole house looked like a roof built on a wood scrap pile.

Been drug free for a while now. He didn't say wood related interesting pics. He just said interesting.

A condom? It's the bottom of a coffee mug with some water in it. I was catching drops of water on film and this was a formation.

Like this

Never got to do the job. I quoted the front door/entryway and the salesman threw in the interior work . They agreed to the price and then the salesman told me that I had to do a little interior work too. A whole hallways worth of wainscoting, trim around doors and a bunch of other unrelated stuff. I politely declined. They couldn't understand why.

Did you notice in the lightning shot that there were dots of light going across the scene? That was a jet that passed through the time laps picture with his strobe light on his tail flashing. Cool.

That is pretty cool. My uncle is an awesome photographer, I used to drive around with him and take pictures of old round barns.
