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.

Does anyone else check to see if it's a GIF or not....you know just in case?

[–]NullCharacter 10 points11 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It can be a linked as a .jpg and still be a GIF, if that makes sense.

My point: Don't trust the extension.

Slender man, I thought it looked like a silhouette of Pedobear.

[–]baccus83 1 point2 points ago

Just to the left of the swings there's a very faint silhouette.

EDIT: Some on the far right too.

[–]chazmotic 7 points8 points ago

Did you see this?

[–]_bonesmalone[S] 3 points4 points ago

Aw shit, my boyfriend and I were convinced something like that was going to come up out of the water if we got too close.

What beach was it. Looks like Oregon beach I visit...

[–]highfiveunicornbob 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yeah! I was just gonna say, looks exactly like the swingset (and weather) in Seaside, Oregon.

I swear on my life that there's a silhouette standing in the middle... Please tell me I'm not the only one who sees it.

[–]_bonesmalone[S] 4 points5 points ago

Yeah I took a couple others like this at the coast. The layer of fog was unexpected, made for some sick pictures though.

look harder, you can see people in the fog. One dead center, two on the right side.

Reminds me of the scene from Harry potter, with the dementors in the park.

[–]Phoequinox 1 point2 points ago

One of these days, I hope to go around a large area that looks like that. I don't care if there are zombies, mutants, psychopaths or anything else, I would just love that atmosphere.

[–]_bonesmalone[S] 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

We kept our guard up for 'shamblers'. :) There were a couple huge holes dug in random places, and a baby stroller with stuff in it, but no person anywhere near it. It really was like something out of a fuckin' zombie movie.

Someone should definitely make this into a subtle movement .gif

Agreed, just based on the thumbnail I had the same thought. I've been a huge fan of his series of sea photos ever since first seeing one in the book Minimum by John Pawson.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I had the pleasure to see the full exhibit of original prints from this series this summer, in DC. They were displayed in a hug black room along a obliquely concave wall, with spotlights. I spent about 30 minutes looking at them. Amazing and haunting series.

[–]_bonesmalone[S] 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Nope, still like that in the summer. Except for the last month or so, actually been pretty decent.

Edit: Minus the coast, obviously. The whole drive down there was bright, sunny and gorgeous, then as soon as we hit Seaside it gets all foggy. wtf.
