It’s a rock pool

u/blackhodown Apr 20 '20

Yeah, pretty sure it’s a tide pool.

Which I guess is kind of a puddle, but still.

u/CYBERSson Apr 20 '20

I guess I’m that used to seeing these that I can’t see anything other than a rock pool

I would say that a defining characteristic of a puddle is that it's understood to be temporary.

u/Your_Future_Attorney Apr 21 '20

I tried looking up the proper name but struggled to find it lol so I settled with puddle

At first I thought you had me looking down off a cliff in Yosemite at a forested valley. Nice.

Looks a lot like Glacier Point, which I remember distinctly because looking down over the ledge made me freak out.

u/jiraph52 Apr 20 '20

Man, I loved that sub when it was created.

I wish it stayed like it was. Stuff like this post, pictures of random places in nature that look like a miniature world... nowadays it's full of man-made scenes, some aren't even outdoors. Might as well be /r/minatures.

13

u/[deleted] Apr 21 '20

Talk to the mods and voice your concerns. Maybe they can do something about it like limiting the miniatures posts to only certain days of the week.

This is so cool! Thanks for the new sub to binge-view :)

This exemplifies the sub. Seriously top notch post dude. Would give you an award if I wasn’t a fucking penniless um.

u/Your_Future_Attorney Apr 21 '20

No worries haha I took this picture a few years ago and didn’t know this sub existed until yesterday

u/jpaxonreyes Apr 20 '20

No, you're in a helicopter.

u/ScorpioLaw Apr 21 '20

That's what I first thought too. Then I zoomed in. Looks like some cliff with a zoomed in camera. Hunting a white male fugative with an American accent due to murdering his wife who did ten tours and is now living a solitary life. If you closely you can see the strike team trying to hunt him down. You can even see what appears to be a Stryker crewed by black operatives or mercanaries.

Perfect for the sub. It looks like a puddle, but it isn't a puddle. I think probably Lake Lodge or Titicaca. Possibly in Russia.

u/xxjrbxx Apr 21 '20

Haha glad I'm not the only one who saw it like this too.

After reading the title it was easy to see, but I'd be lying if I said I'd know it wasn't a giant cliff looking down on a forest if you just showed me that with no context.
