LoCO’s daily Instagram battle ran from March 2015 to June 2016. Instagram no longer serves the photos, so what’s left is who posted, when, the votes and the captions.
Voting is closed.

REMINDER: Not everyone whose photo appears here necessarily knows that they’re playing our game, right? Remember that.

9:07 a.m.: Young Gooseneck barnacles from my New Years hike. I've lived on the north coast of California almost my whole life and had never seen these before like this. Their skin was like velvet and the shells reminded me of opal. They live 20+years and are edible, I put them back though 😊. #humboldtcounty

10:37 a.m.: The Greeks … raised the eye beyond the horizon and recognized the heavenly patterns of the cosmos. There they glimpsed a vision of order which was to become the heart of their understanding of beauty. All the frailty and uncertainty was seen to be ultimately sheltered by the eternal beauty which presides over all the journeys between awakening and surrender, the visible and the invisible, the light and the darkness. #sunsets #humboldtcounty #california #beauty #nature
