This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

The Internet says it's an oil beetle. I've never seen one of those before.

That looks like auto sharpening that a lot of modern phone cameras do which messes up zoomed images like this. Happens with my phone camera too it’s really annoying

Phone isn't letting me add the raw image directly, but that link goes to it.
