Was just curious if anyone else was interested in non road photos and what interests you.  Post your photos here, and please no women and sexy photos but of nature or it can be someone provided its a modest type of depiction.

So men are OK but women are not?

Ha Ha.  LOL!  But seriously some guys (especially NE2) would post a sexy image of a woman in Playboy (heck NE2 would post a picture of a person taking a number 2, or post Beavis talking about turd) is what I am getting at.

I am fine with a swimsuit collection, but leave that to another thread as this one is just for cool stuff here.

Let's cover both bases you suggest!

I have a ton of Landscape stuff from National Parks, Monuments, and other outdoor locales on my Flickr page.  I try to keep everything organized into albums on specific subject matters.  Really my favorite landscapes are mountains like the Sierras and deserts.   I used to have a fairly extensive collection of car show pictures but really lost interest in those photos and deleted the bulk of them.  Pretty much anything engineering wise is something I like to photograph, I've been doing a lot of rail stuff these days.  I also have a pretty large ghost town collection from over the years that I still consistently add to.  Places like Bodie, Vulture City, and Oatman I find particularly intriguing and look great into monochrome.

Suggest we also ban photos of pets.  There are already enough places on the Internet to find cute cat photos.

This is gone far enough.  Yes pets are welcome, I think it is fairly obvious what I meant in the OP.  I just did not want perverted or trivial stuff posted.  Some of the serious Aspies on here will post the former, while the latter is okay but I just wanted it to be about the flickr stuff you see on the home page.

Well, this eliminates what I was going to post. I’m not being snarky, I was legitimately going to post the work of a German photographer who does great retro-style pictures of models.

A recent photo I took northeast of Duluth. I've been waiting for a thread like this since I know many of us take non-road stuff too.

The western shore of Lake Superior is pretty damn nice on MN 61.  Made a stop by Split Rock Lighthouse this past summer north of Duluth:

Ooh, I love that shot. It's a "stereotypical"  shot for people to shoot Split Rock and I see tons of photos of it weekly, but sometimes I see new takes that jump out. Great work. 

My favorite qualification for a place that's truly close to your heart like North Shore is for me is that every picture you see of the same things brings something new and never gets old.

Same thing out here for me, I have thousands of photos from major local sites like Yosemite and Sequoia National Park.  I feel like that I keep improving my photos as I go to the areas more and more due to getting to know the terrain:

I really love panoramics of large sweeping areas like the mountains and some sort of long over look.  The Minnesota coast was nice because it had a ton of long deep views like that which I really enjoy.  This is one I took from Split Rock:

The only issues getting a pano was that the glare was pretty high to the south and I had to basically hang onto a fence to get the picture I wanted.  There is a little warp that I don't like but it was best of about ten attempts.

I do not take many photos, but when I do I produce some great ones. For example this one of my bike with an accidental finger which combines well with the shadows. I've mentioned several times a town in the Western extreme of my region of Aragon named Ariza, and this photo was taken there. Of course I didn't bike all the way there, since it's 120 miles away from home.
