Submit your Halloween pumpkin pics to /r/horror's carving competition!

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.

  6. No animated images. Please submit them to /r/gif, /r/gifs, or /r/reactiongifs instead.

  • 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.

It's actually not albino or half albino, it's a genetic condition known as "piebald." It is a recessive trait perhaps most common in horses. This should look familiar. It is possible to occur in a variety of animals, even snakes! Peafowls are probably some of the most striking animals to see it in though!

Piebald reptiles can get pretty expensive. Apparently people are more interested in them than albinos these days.

[–]ace_invader 1 point2 points ago

Does this make them less, or more attractive to potential mates?

[–]mrmessiah 5 points6 points ago

Half peacock, half shuttlecock

[–]bensuave26 3 points4 points ago

What the fuck is wrong with that pigeon?

[–]no_were_musicians 1 point2 points ago

He's not gonna get laid with that plumage.

[–]FartMagnet 1 point2 points ago

So he is only half bad at sports.

It's a mutation. It's a very groovy mutation. I've got news for you, peacock. You are a mutant.

[–]Alabama_Man -1 points0 points ago

By definition you can't be half albino.

[–]Shmowzowzow -4 points-3 points ago

[–]katzenjammer360 1 point2 points ago

It's not. There's a much more likely explanation above :)

[–]kr1ztov -3 points-2 points ago

more like HALFBINO

It's leucism... albinism is expressed over the entire body of an animal. - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leucism
