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.

That's Iguazu Falls on the Argentine Side. Located right across from the lookout on San Martin Island.

Shots from the lookout of the same rock formation I took recently: http://www.flickr.com/photos/virtualwayfarer/5340545119/in/set-72157625787869746

This land use to belong to Paraguay.. which is why many Paraguayans still consider it part theirs. My parents and I included. After the Triple Alliance War Paraguay lost a lot of land. Look it up. You will learn something new.

The land use to belong to a lot of different people. It doesn't anymore. It's like saying San Antonio Texas was Mexican, because it once belonged to Mexico.

Anyone who want's to go there/build a house/climb it/thinks it's paradise has no idea how hellishly loud those falls are. Edit: But yea, they are beautiful! Especially the Argentina side.

Now the question is, how do you reach that island? Helicopter, maybe? Or would the air around the falls be too unstable?

[–]Remilla 2 points3 points ago

Zip lines, Getting there the first time would suck, but after that easy in easy out.

I was thinking along the same lines. I wonder if a human being has ever set foot on it.

Land use to belong to Paraguay..until Argentina/Brazil/Uruguay ganged up against us! (Triple Alliance War) You will learn something you didn't know!

[–]AliasBr1 1 point2 points ago

Those lands never belong to Paraguay, you guys lost a portion of Brazilian Mato Grosso. I was born in Brasil and lived all my life in Argentina, so I know about the war.
