Looking for an image subreddit with minimal rules? Check out /r/images

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.

  • 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.

This is a fake picture, the size of the sun and the moon are about the same size. This applies anywhere on the Earth.

Also fake because the angle of the sun and moon could never be as depicted at the North Pole.

NOOOO.

It's a computer generated image. The sun and the moon are almost the same size when seen from any point on the planet.

Also, repost, dammit.

Plus you cannot see mountains off in the distance at the north pole...

I have never seen it before tonight :( Sorry for the re-post but it's so pretty...

Edit: Sorry that it is a re-post I meant. I searched for it by it's title before posting and did not find it. O.o

It is a fascinating rendition, true.

On the other hand, apparently it's only been posted once before.

Well shoot....what does one do in a case like this? Should I delete it? (I have been wondering that for awhile now).
