Theme: cooler than expected

Rules: no NSFW and has to be a snap you took yourself.

I think we should make themes optional so if you have a pic you want to post that doesn't fit, you still can, what does everyone else think?

Here's a photo I took recently:

I think this is a good idea. Got something cool to share? Just share it. Prefer the challenge of a theme? We got you covered.

I love the light shining through the trees and sky. Is it a river, or a pond?

This is the Manawatū River Loop, which I'm only just realising is some weird side loop that comes off the river and back on. It passes next to Foxton, and the photo is taken from near the River Loop Reserve Playground, which I'm told has the best slide in the world, but that was just one kid's opinion.

I will attempt to link to the place on Open Street Map, hopefully this works: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/1296553394

It does work. That loop is so strange, I like it!
