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.

Given the amount of smoke, I'd say this was well after the plane hit. It's safe to say she wasn't "caught distracted" but was intentionally posing.

[–]Penile_Wart 17 points18 points ago

Also considering the amount of grain in this foto, and the absolute poor choice of location, and possible also the girls somewhat normal outfit - this probably wasn't even a photoshoot!

[–][deleted] 11 points12 points ago

Yep, pretty much any ones first thought when looking at this picture. Not quite sure how OP thought otherwise.

[–]yetanotherx 9 points10 points ago

The Flikr title said it was right after impact, so the OP took that as fact.

[–]SgtBanana 2 points3 points ago

"Oh look, a horrific tragedy. Artistic pose time."

[–]yetanotherx -4 points-3 points ago

Especially considering it looks identical to the scene after the South tower collapsed: http://i.imgur.com/Fdost.jpg

[–]WilliamAgentofOrange 0 points1 point ago

This was actually my first thought when I looked at the picture, especially after seeing the title of the post. I thought that would have been an insane coincidence, and expected to see that fireball or something. But nope. I do wonder what kind of person thinks of snapping posed pictures like that after a terrorist attack in their city, using the attack as a prop. Not that it bothers me, it's just an interesting reaction.

[–]devophill 1 point2 points ago

what kind of person thinks

I'm guessing not a whole lot of thought went into this photo.

[–]nobuhdy 37 points38 points ago

She seems oddly relaxed given the situation

[–]klsi832 60 points61 points ago

She's probably doing that thing where you soak a tampon in vodka then put it in your vagina.

[–]alphanovember 66 points67 points ago

Ok.

[–]legthief 8 points9 points ago

Is there a guy equivalent of this? I need to know. For Science.

[–]luellasindon 32 points33 points ago

Yeah, soak a tampon in vodka and put it in your asshole. Try not to die.

[–]xVoide[!] 14 points15 points ago

Toothpaste on your nipples.

[–]devophill 1 point2 points ago

[–]arbivark 0 points1 point ago

this week, it's "spay the vodka in your eye". pretty much any mucous membrane, but the anal route circumvents the liver so you get fucked up quicker (which can be read either way.)

Well, more for gay/bi guys but for guys nonetheless.

[–]rasputine 2 points3 points ago

You don't need to be gay or bi to put things in your ass. Nor even to enjoy it. You only have to be gay or bi to want people of the same sex to put those things there for you. Sexually.

[–]Rockran 0 points1 point ago

You only have to be gay or bi to want people of the same sex to put those things there for you. Sexually.

Not even, a friend assisting you with some rectal stimulation isn't homo - What if your hands are busy and he's just being a good mate?

[–]rasputine 0 points1 point ago

Nono, I covered that. I said you had to want people of the same sex to do it. Not just that you wanted it done, but that you wanted Steve to do it.

[–]daman345 -1 points0 points ago

Yes, you just drink it like a man

[–]ooowl -2 points-1 points ago

put it in your butthole

[–]The_One_Above_All 1 point2 points ago

Does it work?

[–]BingoFlip83 -1 points0 points ago

Stefon?

[–]Klexicon 2 points3 points ago

Must be a terrorist. Lets get her!

[–]totosushi[!] 0 points1 point ago

[–]reddit_general 0 points1 point ago

If you could only see her facial expression. - Blue Steel -

[–]cturnr 10 points11 points ago

An Australian Model? Was her name Keitha?

[–]RedFollower 2 points3 points ago

Reddit refers Hamish and Andy as 'two Australian comedians'

[–]Threadmonkey 3 points4 points ago

Yes professional models get photographed with P&S cameras... sure.

Even in 2001 DSLRs, film or digital were far less noisy than this picture, which was taken in broad daylight might I add.

[–]OmniaII 10 points11 points ago

[–]everydayfromwork 7 points8 points ago

I wouldn't call watching the aftermath of a plane crashing into a building a distraction.

[–]steezjuice 2 points3 points ago

looks like tower 2 already fell at that point.

[–]TittysMcFucksalot 2 points3 points ago

Those Australians, always getting distracted by the burning tower in the background.

[–]mikejam1958 2 points3 points ago

Why is it that this particular shot hasn't been seen until now? Every photograph of this event has been published somewhere. I call Bison Shit.

[–]WarPhalange 1 point2 points ago

Oh. Would you look at that.

Yeah, I think I'd be a lot more animated if I just saw a plane ram into a building not too far from me.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

Yeah, I'd probably also get distracted when a fucking plane hits a tower relatively close to me.

[–]unkyduck 0 points1 point ago

Looks 'shoppped.

[–]Blackultra 0 points1 point ago

AWWW YEAH SOME HOT CHICK IS-- ooh.......

[–][deleted] -2 points-1 points ago

Ari Abramczyk, a professional with tens of thousands in camera equipment, present at the turn of the world, and what do we get? A right triangle of tan anorexia, full of skin and devoid of humanity. Perfect for the butterflies under glass sterility of fashion photography.

[–]ukyah -1 points0 points ago

this is the most bogus description of a photo ever. even if it's real, nothing about the timing is correct.

[–]xnerdyxrealistx -5 points-4 points ago

It's shopped. I can tell. I've seen a few shops in my day.

[–]arbivark -4 points-3 points ago

more of her? name?

[–]cturnr 4 points5 points ago

Keitha.

[–]quabbe 3 points4 points ago

Jaqui.

That is incorrect.
