But if you Google crepuscular rays, you can find examples.

[Nittersing]

7. Just a pic that came with the phone

Looks like a sunset in a suburban neighborhood with palm trees.

[applegrove]

17. You can never have too many palm trees.

[Hstch05]

8. Two of my students

hijacked my phone while I was taking them out to a team dinner. It's the two of them making faces at me, and it cracks me up every time I see it, so I've kept it for the last 6 months.

[applegrove]

14. Very funny.

[wryter2000]

[Scrivener7]

30. Right now, sunrise over a 900 year old monastery viewed from the other side of the Danube. But I change them often.

The previous one was my two grandmothers leaving the church after my aunt's 1958 wedding, all dressed up and looking beautiful.

34. My parents wedding photo is from 1958.

Thx

[applegrove]

40. Yup. I have quite a few cats I think of all the time.

[SheltieLover]

41. Dogs too & a horse

[applegrove]

42. Lucky you.

[SheltieLover]

46. Hahaha

I'm told the horse is always in my front yard grazing. Big job to keep that huge belly full.

[applegrove]

47. Does the grass still grow? Maybe you'll need a goat.

[SheltieLover]

48. Yes, unfortunately, the grass still grows.

Ordinance prohibits livestock, so no goat.

[Ptah]

39. A picture of my children from 30 years ago.

Fishing at Half Moon Bay.

[applegrove]

45. Ahhhh! Italy!

[LogDog75]

49. I have a sunset

The picture was taken in Coronado, Ca. looking West towards Point Loma. The sun was halfway down behind Point Loma illuminating the sky. The foreground shows some palm trees, the beach, some of the ocean, the rocks and sidewalk along Ocean Blvd.

[applegrove]

50. Heaven.

[bmbmd]

51. Sunset

At Mallory Square.

[applegrove]

53. I miss sunsets and my Dad. He used to live it a nursing home that had the most magnificent sunsets.

[Skittles]

52. none

solid blue background

[applegrove]

56. I did not know they could be a solid colour. My cell phones have

all had some imagine, the visual equivalent of musak, on them from the start.

[markie]

Along the Appalachian Trail (with the big dam prominent)

[applegrove]

58. Industrial! I like it.

[a kennedy]

[MIButterfly]

57. My cat Holly.

[applegrove]

61. What a pretty name.

[MIButterfly]

[UpInArms]

60. My horses waiting for me

With the “live” feature that lets it show one of them turning his head

[applegrove]

62. Must be nice to have such friends.

[UpInArms]

63. They are my besties

Spending time with them heals me

[applegrove]

64. I love horses. Don't know them well. I liked riding but figured I had

no idea what I was doing as I'd never taken a lesson, would gallop through fields, wore no helmet, and was by myself. Growing into my late twenties gave me pause. I still like looking at them. Including Palominos

[Brother Buzz]

66. My son, my daughter-in-law to be and Cowboy, my grandson who is

The rodeo star down at the dog park. People stop what they’re doing just to watch the rescue Border collie do his thing. He plays wonderful games with the other dogs after he does his routine. A real crowd pleaser with a sterling reputation.

Cowboy just stared in an internet commercial under the alias, Clint.

[applegrove]

67. Dog parks are fun. Funner still when Cowboy is there

[Brother Buzz]

71. The owner of an English Bulldog was in stitches

When Cowboy engaged his chubby dog in a chase and be chased game, and admitted it was the most exercise he’d had in years. When the porker had enough, he just rolled on his side with his tongue sticking out and smiled. Cowboy was smiling, too. We played the video my son send us over and over again.

[applegrove]

75. I house sat a Bouvier puppy once. He was huge. He'd

play with the other dogs at the dog park and they'd all come back with their heads covered in the Bouvier's saliva. Don't quite think the puppy knew how to properly play with other dogs. Was fun.

[Brother Buzz]

83. I didn't mention the drooling, because drooling is a given with bulldogs

It’s just part of the game in Cowboy’s mind

[applegrove]

85. Did you say he was a herd dog? Oh you meant the

Victim, "%##@^* I mean playmate, was a bulldog.

[Phoenix61]

68. No picture. Just a grey screen with my e-mail address.

If I ever lose my phone whoever finds it will hopefully make the effort to e-mail me. Best Facebook hack ever.

[applegrove]

69. Brilliant!

[dhol82]

72. The inside of the Sydney Opera House

The woodwork is amazing!

[WestMichRad]

77. They did such a cute questionnaire/interview today.

Saw it online. Wish I'd saved it. Such a sweet couple.

[FoxNewsSucks]

78. My dogs.

The only good thing I have.

They are very good girls.

[applegrove]

80. You have DU too. Don't forget us. You are also on

the right side of history in these times. Plus you have PUPPIES!!!

[Thunderbeast]

79. A watercolor painting of Mt. Hood and Trillium Lake

[applegrove]

84. Winner, winner, chicken dinner!

[Upthevibe]

86. applegrove.........

Great question

I have an adorable picture of one of my best friends Schnauzer. He's one of the best boys ever! He's actually perfect. I stay the night over at her place about once every two weeks and he snuggles with me on the couch while we watch shows (mainly documentaries). He has my heart

She has a really cool little house in Venice Beach by the canals and she's two blocks from the beach. The picture of is of him on the beach. It was such a beautiful day that it almost looks like it's not even real. He's a stunning little guy...

[applegrove]

87. You are lucky to have such a good friend. I bet you make his day when you visit.

[chouchou]

95. A picture of popcorn clouds over Fort Myers

I was flying with my family a few years ago for a vacation, and had a window seat. We were above the clouds, just starting the descent. It's all blues and whites, with a hint of the city below.

I loved the vacation, but I wish it had been somewhere else.

[applegrove]

96. Love clouds.

[liberaltrucker]
