My current favourite 😍
A blue-dark-turquoise mug with a thick round handle. On it are spooky Halloween branches with orange lights on the tips around a starry sky with a crescent moon. In the bottom of the branches is a silhouette of a sitting cat with tail looking at the viewer with round eyes visible.

@ailantd.com for some reason these cell towers remind me of your #art
Two large grey poles against an overcast sky, with the tops of dark green leafy trees poking into the corner of the frame. Each pole is a cell tower with compact rings and segments on the upper half of what is in the frame  the right tower is more cylindrical and has 3 flat aerial panels 120 degrees around the pole, then a featureless cylinder for the remaining 2 thirds of the upper half. The left tower has multiple flat panels at the top, 3 rings, more compact panels, 3 lengthy panels, then 3 more compact ones. It all looks very futuristic.

Was spiraling at home so took Henry for a walk. He got to chase pheasants and partridges, run around in wildflowers, and meet lots of dogs. I greatly appreciated the peace and quiet. #DogsOfBluesky #Basingstoke #Oakley #Hampshire

My cookies were *not* a disaster! They're 4 inches across, so more like the huge Otis Spunkmeyer type sold in the USA. I used Sainsbury's own 100g chocolate bars chopped roughly, as chocolate chips are expensive in the UK. www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes...
A shallow rectangular glass container holds 4 golden brown chocolate chip cookies. Each cookie is about 4 inches across and almost touch the side of the container.

A cartoon picture of a man looking off to his right. He has a collared rubgy shirt, spiky hair that's a bit too long, a short rough beard and thin moustache. He looks slightly bewildered. The picture is in the style of the Obama Hope picture, but instead says "BUMS".

I didn't chill them for long enough and they spread during baking. Next time, more than 20 minutes! When they've cooled we'll see how edible they are lol

Looking down at my lap while seated. An orange plate with a large sausage roll sits on my lap. I'm wearing dark turquoise soft trousers and the couch is covered by a brightly patterned paisley style throw. To my right is my dog Henry lying his head on the seat, trying his hardest to look starving and pathetic. He's a light brown dog with dark nose and muzzle, and dark eyebrows.

2 dogs play off leash in a park. One is light brown and the other is black and white. Both have tails upright and straight out, and both are about 25 to 30 kilograms. The black and white dog is in mid leap towards the light brown dog, who is turning towards her. There's trees with full foliage on the horizon and hazy very sunny blue sky above. 2 dogs chasing each other in mid right turn with their tails towards us. One is light brown, the other is black and white. They are on a rough grass field in bright sunshine. The brown dog is in front, the black and white one close behind!

This warms my heart. Henry enjoying himself galloping through the forest in Beggarwood Park, Hatch Warren, Basingstoke. Taken with a Canon R6 mkII on sports setting with a 50mm lens. #Dog #Dogs #DogsOfBluesky #Forest #Woodland #eyebleach #happy #Basingstoke #Beggarwood
A light brown dog gallops from left to right across a forest floor. His ears are flying upwards from his motion,and his tail is straight out behind him. His front right paw, closest to the viewer, is raised, while his front left paw is midway through propelling him forward. The forest floor is covered by brown leaves in the 3rd of the frame closest to the right lower corner. The rest of the forest floor is covered in a combination of ivy, ground cover greenery, and large logs covered in moss. There are multiple trees from shoots through young saplings and mature trees in the background. This dog is having a great time and looks very happy with his mouth open and eyes intent on something to the right of the frame.
