A jelly friend on Facebook brought his laptop to a fancy restaurant and took a shot of Fluther on his laptop (next to a rather large glass of wine). It was a cool pic. :)

Be it at school, at work, at a bar, coffee shop, restaurant, or in your backyard.. take a photo and post it. :)

I’m going out of town next week and if I remember I will post a pic of my laptop and it’s beautiful surrounds in its, relatively, cheap but clean motel.

99.9% of the time if I’m Fluthering from my laptop…. I’m in bed. I can try to get a pic if I remember, though. Cool idea.

Here’s a pic I took a few minutes ago of my current surroundings, aka, my bedroom.

Let’s play I Spy.

I spy:

A pith helmet (dated 1915)
A dueling pistol
An African death mask
A picture of a gumball machine
A dried up daisychain

My room is kind of a mess, and it is nighttime, so it is dark in here.That’s a huge freaking TV in the background. My laptop keyboard is broken, so just a plain link.

Now I feel like I should have stuck my foot out, because the positioning of my pic and FPCB’s are really similar. haha.

Okay, wait, I turned on the light. Much better pic, but too late to edit my last post. And, yes, I am watching The Princess and the Frog.

If I took a picture of my laptop (and desk) at this moment, you would get a glimpse into the clutteriness of my brain. I won’t, though, cause it’s embarrassing.

If I Fluther from anywhere cool, I will try to remember to photograph it.

I’ll send pics by the pool sometime this weekend. Great idea! =)

It’s hard to make out Fluther on the screen because of the bright sun.

@Fiddle_Playing_Creole_Bastard Nice mutant toes. The third one isn’t supposed to be the longest!

I was going to say something about @Fiddle_Playing_Creole_Bastard ‘s toes, but didn’t quite know what.
I guesss “nice” would be the right word. ;)

I wouldn’t articulate a thing about the foot, the hairy leg, the rumpled, unmade bed, cluttered room, or bad photography.

No, but I would like to bring up the pith helmet hanging on the wall. I’ve often awakened in the middle of the night and wanted to take a pith without having to walk to the bathroom. That would be handy but it would need to be clother to the bed.

@Cruiser They are. I just got in from a night time swim. You know how hot it is right now. Laying on the raft looking at the stars was a welcome relief. =)

@jonsblond I used to lay on a queen sized inflatable mattress in the pool with my boys and we would count the number of satellites in the night sky!!!

@jailbait is something wrong with your screen or is it just the camera messing up?

XOIIO (18328

)“Great Answer” (0

@XOIIO I think it’s the camera.

MilkyWay (13745

)“Great Answer” (0

I think it’s the (likely) fact that you used a shutter speed on the camera that’s faster than the refresh rate of the screen. Take a shot at 1/60 second (or slower) and you’ll probably get a better result. With photos of television screens taken with a fast shutter speed, the result used to be a horizontal black bar, and the shot had to be taken at ⅓0 second or slower to avoid that. I’m pretty sure that the computer screen refreshes quicker than that, though.

Town Dog and I took mine down to the beach. We were enjoying a peaceful interlude when suddenly a sea monster appeared! No worries though, TD took charge and whispered the monster into a calm and submissive state of mind. Here is photographic evidence of the encounter.

I know I’m late to the party, but here is a picture of Magrat Fluthering. Chubby kitty – if she’d get off the computer once in a while maybe she’d be more svelte.

@rooeytoo that looks photoshopped. I can tell by the pixels, and from having seen a few photoshops in my day.

@lillycoyote – yep, ho hum, another day, another sea monster conquered by TD

@Fiddle_Playing_Creole_Bastard – How could you even suggest that @rooeytoo‘s photo is at all altered? I’d trust her with my life, especially in the event of a sea monster attack.

@Fiddle_Playing_Creole_Bastard – Maybe things are pixellier down under. Didja ever think of that?!

@Seelix is right. I read it on the internet.

@ANef_is_Enuf nuh uh! I google image searched for “down under” and it didn’t look any pixelier than where I live!

TexasDude (25274

@rooeytoo Photoshopped? Really? I’m so disappointed, though it does explain why the waves in the picture seem to be breaking in two different directions, flowing at a kind of >30 degree angle near the sea monster’s head. I thought maybe that was some Australian thing, being at the bottom of the planet and being further from the moon and all that. I thought you just had crazy tides down there maybe. :-)

ANef_is_Enuf (26839

@lillycoyote – actually I have seen that happen, there are places here on the mud flats where the tide comes in so quickly, you have to run so as not to get caught and with sand bars and the like it looks as if it is going in different directions! Also in Noosa there is a spot where the river empties into the ocean and there on the river banks the waves rush in parallel. I mean you stand there and watch them rush by. Almost makes you dizzy it is so weird! Things are a little strange down under and that includes me, heheheh!

But I am not kidding, that sea monster was real! and TD did jump on its back and ride it. True story!!!

rooeytoo (26981

I, for one, TOTALLY believe you @rooeytoo.

ANef_is_Enuf (26839

)“Great Answer” (1

@rooeytoo O.K. Now I’m thinking you only photoshopped the part with you and your laptop being so close. I bet TD didn’t let you get that close until the monster was calm and it was safe for you and your laptop, monsters, splashing water, all that business.

Better late than never. I only just managed to get my trip out of town and on the road is normally when I use my laptop so here is the photo you requested from us, @Mama_Cakes, for what it’s worth.
