For photos of beautiful, still-inhabited locales! It can be a quick snapshot of your local town, a breathtaking pro photo of a city, or a pic of some fascinating piece of modern life.
The only real rule is that it must be an actively inhabited/used location (ie not ruins or natural locales). Otherwise, go wild. Anything that you find beautiful or interesting!

Nice. We’re well into stick season in northern New England.
"Stick season" hahahaha, wish I could upvote twice for that
After the leaves fall off the trees, before they’re covered in snow.
I heard it was in the 80s up there though! Crazy stuff.
NJ here, and yup, it's been mostly 70's and a few 80's for the past 2 weeks. It would be great minus the no rain in over a month part. I am currently surrounded by 2 brush fires, each about 5 miles away in opposite directions. This is the second year in a row where fires have been this close. Prior to last year, I had never seen this before for the area.
The lack of rain gets brutal. Around 9 years ago California didn't get any rain for two full years, and man, it was gross there. I visited and as we were landing it looked like we were diving into a bowl of beef broth. Everything smelled like dirt, car pollution, and forest fires.
Holy fucking saturation batman
Neon pink tree there like some sort of acid trip
For all its faults, the American South is still a stunningly beautiful place. I've stood on streets exactly like this one in Alabama and felt like I was in a postcard.
I recently had the opportunity to drive from Tennessee to Alabama. I'd never been to this region before. I was amazed at how lush everything was!
