For an image subreddit with fewer restrictions, check out /r/misc!

A place to share interesting photographs and pictures. Feel free to post your own, but please read the rules first (see below), and note that we are not a catch-all for general images (of screenshots, comics, etc.)

Spoiler code

Please mark spoilers like this:
[text here](/spoiler)

Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  6. No animated images. Please submit them to /r/gif, /r/gifs, or /r/reactiongifs instead.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

my fear of heights hates you. Heres an upvote to keep you from falling dooowwwwwn

[–]bigbeekeekilla 0 points1 point ago

Yeah, I was standing for some reason when I saw this and I immediately felt the urge to sit down in the middle of the floor.

[–]ATrainer 0 points1 point ago

Heart in my throat

[–]Sofa_King_Bored 0 points1 point ago

Balls in my heart.

[–]Squik101 3 points4 points ago

So this gets posted quite a bit, but I see that a few people havent seen it yet. The camera shot is an optical illusion. The guy hanging from the rock is quite safe as there is land directly under him.

[–]DoctorBurger 2 points3 points ago

I'm not a clever man, is there a photo that might explain the other angle to this type of picture?

[–]aplolac 0 points1 point ago

yeah i'm not getting either

[–]Squik101 0 points1 point ago

Unfortunately I am not very clever either. The image gets reposted all over the internet and leaves deadends during my searching. What I know is that it was posted before on reddit and in the thread the location was linked. The rock is well-known in its area as people take pictures like this often and those pictures are the ones I've been searching for.

[–]Squik101 1 point2 points ago

Found it! Well, this was the post that had most karma at least. Here is another perspective of the rock from that thread

[–]oh_hai_dan 0 points1 point ago

That is what I thought, I took a couple similar pictures like this at the Grand Canyon

[–]razoRamone31 -2 points-1 points ago

[–]LukeKelly123 1 point2 points ago
