Default CP Photo Challenge #16: Winner: Cowperson

Hopefully this will get people interested in the photo challenges again. For this challenge anything goes. The only catch is that the photo has to be taken between today (April 9th) and when round 1 ends (April 23rd). The weather is nice so get out and take some new photos. No digging in archives this time!!

Round one voting is open until 10:00pm on the 23rd

---------------
Rules:
All photos must be no larger than 800x600 (or something close)
Please post only 1 photo per post (make a new post for new pics)
Post as many photos as you like, just keep it on topic
Vote by clicking the "Thanks" button at the bottom of the post
You may vote for 3 finalists.
Once the challenge leader (winner from previous challenge) chooses when to end the voting, he/she will change the thread title to explain when voting ends.
Once voting for the finalists is over, the challenge leader will tally up the votes and post (in 3 separate posts) the finalists.
Challenge leader again changes thread title to say when voting ends
Then, everyone comes back and votes on those 3 finalists.
You are only allowed 1 vote in the finals, so choose wisely
Winner of the challenge will start a new challenge thread and copy/paste these rules in the original post for consistency.
Don't be too specific with the theme nor too general. Try and get a theme that people can contribute to. Don't pick the red african ant of Kenya as a theme... nobody will post. Likewise, don't make the theme "stuff on earth"
Have fun.
---------------

Good timing. I'm going to Boston and NYC this weekend. I'll be sure to post some when I come back.

Good idea. This will give me an excuse to fire up the old camera (it's been a while).

Darn, looks like there's no unspecified year loophole.

Sweet! I got a new camera today. Thanks again FurnaceFace. I haven't begun to figure out how to use it yet, haha, but here's a few I took today.



Downtown from the off leash park in Parkdale.

It's been too long since I've been out shooting landscapes. It's was a little cold and muddy this morning but worth getting up at 5:30 on a holiday.

Earlier today, a walk up to Lake Agnes, the angle achieved by sinking to my crotch and boots filling with snow. Curse dogs who can walk on snow.

Wild horses out on a blustery day here in Penticton. A mare and her foal, born last night.

The three of them together, standing high on a hill top.

It will be sad to head back to Shanghai tomorrow.

My cat always seems to find a way to get in my shots.

Nothing spectacular about the quality of the picture, as it was taken on my phone yesterday, but the content is just so ridiculously funny, I thought. I would have blurred the license plate... but it just puts the whole thing over the top!
