Ironically, Saturday saw two Cougar college football teams playing each other. (Washington State and BYU)
It was humorous watching the announcers keep referencing "The Cougars" and then having to backtrack realizing that their identification was completely unhelpful to the TV audience watching two Cougar teams playing each other.

I dated a cougar once.

From this Friday Eve morning as the snow began to fall:
(FWIW, this morning as snow began to fall I was rushing to photograph a newly placed survey marker on a parcel of property before it would become covered with snow. Just as I completed my task I heard the cracking sound of branches snapping. As I peered up there were two moose on my property headed toward me. Needless to say I made a quick exit - but not before capturing the sighting as evidenced here.)
And once I had retreated, here are the moose now at a safe distance:

I came across this wooden sign today outside of OC Barbershop in downtown Huntington Beach and thought it looked really cool. I think it’s part of a marketing campaign for California Republic t-shirt company or something like that.
Then I thought, I wonder if just the top part would work as a coin background so I took a picture of it. I might be fooling myself, but I think it works good for any toned coin that has any brown or orange in it 🤔
Photos of and at my neighborhood lake which doubled as the set for an Arctic sea in the opening whale hunting scene of the Drew Barrymore/John Krasinski trapped whales movie, "Big Miracle" which was based on a true story that due to international cooperation between the Soviets and the U.S. was an "ice breaker" for the end of the Cold War.

Nice effect with the rainbow mirroring the clouds or is it the clouds mirroring the rainbow?

And speaking of Nicolas Cage, here are my "paparazzi photos" I took when he was filming on the same street as my office:

What do you think?
Mr_Spud
Maybe for copper too, but I’m not sure. It didn’t look good to me for gold coins, except maybe orangish ones, or white coins though🤔
And I’m pretty sure this one will only work with toned Franklins 😎
Mr_Spud
Then, on the way home, I took this picture
Then square cropped and flipped it mirror like and it became this where the flower is behind the coin🎃

As a footnote, Drew is wearing the orange life vest in my photo of the film's shooting.
They are pretty cool.
