I’m very fond of stories in a universe where some advanced, but long vanished, race of enigmatic aliens has left behind strange artifacts: like puzzle boxes or dungeons for our heroes to explore and nearly get killed in. If not aliens let it be a lost human civilization.

I also like to think about those ancient people who built the ‘Temple of Doom’— for all of those traps to work so well after thousands of years they must have been very clever. What was it like to set them up?

    @loren Sometimes it shows up with a media card when you post it, but as a bare link when other people view it in their feed unless they click into the post details view.

    Saw some bluebells starting to flower out on the trail yesterday. Without the flowers they just look like heads of lettuce sprouting on the forest floor lol

    @loren A lot of my favorite close-up shots were taken with my long lens rather than dedicated macro lens

    @loren 400mm is also good for insects, birds, frogs in foliage. You can really zoom in without getting too close and scaring them away.
