Accidental Renaissance

AccidentalRenaissance is for photos that look like Renaissance paintings.

This means that they look like Renaissance art in their composition, their coloring, their saturation, the angle of the scene, the types of settings, etc.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Must be a photo. Not a meme, drawing, art, ai-generated or ai-enhanced image, screenshot, low-effort post, meta posts, video, or anything else but a photo.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Must be SFW. No gore, porn, extreme violence, blood, corpses, or similarly disturbing content. Absolutely no pornography, even if it's "tasteful".

๐Ÿ‘‰ Comments must be civil. No slurs of any kind or using words to insult, demean, harass, or abuse other individuals or groups.

๐Ÿ‘‰ The Renaissance part (not the photo itself) must be accidental to the photograph. In other words, no photos of Renaissance fairs, people dressed in medieval/Renaissance clothes, etc.

๐Ÿ‘‰ NO influencer selfies, professional photoshoots with watermarks, any type of OnlyFans-like content. We are not the place to work your side-hustle.

๐Ÿ“ธ If you know who the photographer is, give them credit in the comment section. This is the only type of self-promotion we allow.

๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿฆฏ Alt-Text for vision-impaired users in the post body or in the comments is highly encouraged. Just pretend you are describing a photo to someone on the phone.

Y'all ain't from the Midwest are you? Half the people I know right now are in creeks like this looking for brown or pink rings and usually a fight or two.

the first picture looks so staged. like a bad stock picture

Looks like a wedding photographer staged it after they for real dropped the ring and people dove in to help look.

Love Tom Cardy. His lord of the rings song is a constant rewatch favourite.
