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), weight loss photos, posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. Weight loss photos go in /r/loseit, 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.

Is that Welsh?

[–][deleted] 7 points8 points ago

not really.... it is intended to represent an ancient (fictitious) language as conceived by H. P. Lovecraft.

I know, I was just mocking the Welsh! (Seriously, look up their language, it lacks so many vowels!)

I hate the ocean. During many trips to the beach as a kid, I secretly became convinced it wanted to eat me. As a rational adult, well... I just stay far away from it, but pictures like this make my stomach flip-flop and give me goosebumps.

I have been hung over in the water there, bobbing around on a bogie board. Ended up barfing while my friends laughed at me trying to escape my own puddle while being tangled in the kelp. Good times.

sands beach, love that spot

[–]werepat 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Why are they wearing colored jerseys at Sands? It looks more like what Rincon does, especially with those cobble stones, but that white buoy says otherwise.

[–]nightarrow 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I though it was sands at first because the backdrop looked similar, but the buoy is what got my attention. ive seen many people wear colored jerseys at sands though.

[–]werepat 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I was gonna give it to you but that buoy is, in fact, this boat Here is another shot, credited as Rincon goat boat

and a link to the photographers original post 2009 Rincon Classic I surf Sands very often and I've never seen anybody wear a colored jersey there nor are there cobbles like that. Just black wetsuits and mussels.

[–]nightarrow 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I went every week during the winter swells, people do wear their jerseys out when it gets head high, especially at ucsb point break as well. But thanks for the information, you made me remember the mussels! Fucking seeing a starfish wave at your when the wave pulls back, gotta surf around the rocks, steep drops when it walls up, low tide. Man I wanna visit sb again.

Apparently a tentacle monster, Cthulu, or a bunch of seaweed... probably one of the first two, cause seaweed is for conspiracy theorists and perverts.
