Most people don't set out to take shit photos, it just happens because the conditions weren't right, the equipment is inadequate or faulty and a lot of the time simply because people don't have the right skills...or they point their cameras at shit things. It's ok if you're one of those people, we can't all be Pulitzer prize winning photographers and I don't believe a person needs to take amazing photos to enjoy the process of taking photos anyway.
It's that ethos which inspired this community...and a little prompt by @nonamesleftotuse who suggested it could be funny. Find the community here: https://peakd.com/c/hive-181290/created
This community isn't designed to compete against other more legit photography communities, it's simply to provide a place for non-photographers or shitographers to drop their photos if they aren't up to the standards of what pro-photographers might take...or even if they've taken great photos of stuff that is shit! It's meant to be a place people can have some fun, loosen up a little, get creative and not take themselves too seriously.
There's a few community rules:
Shit photos are permitted
Photos of shit stuff are permitted
Taking yourself too seriously is not permitted
Write some text explaining your photos
Photos must be taken by you
No AI images...they're shit!
No plagiarism of text or images (that's shit!)
Don't be a wanker or abusive
English words only, no dual language posts/titles
No cross posting please
I don't know what people will make of this community or if many will actually use it...but I'll certainly be putting my own shit photography in here from time to time...look out for it, it's shit!

Looking forward to seeing some funny Shitography posts. I hope people have a good time with this.
Let's see what people come up with, how creative they choose to be, or not. Either way, my shitography will go here sometimes.
Relax and have some fun. I'd say it's good timing for something like that.
Agreed, some fun is well in order.
All shitography is welcome, funny, bad, totally below average...we don't discriminate.
I must not have an eye for art or photgraphy because I would never call your photos shit. However, this is the perfect place for some schmo like me to start posting photos if I decide to make more feable attempts at it, haha.
Hoep your week went well and the weekend is filled with lots of good stuff.
Your feeble attempts will be most welcome...and will be seen as non-feeble; effort is, and should always be, rewarded.
You and me both, we can add our personal brand of shitography and enjoy the process...if not the results. 😀
What a surprise!!!! So shitty pictures hahaha I'll keep that in mind! I must have a lot of them lying around, lost ones that I have discarded from my walks!
Very good idea!👍
I think, if people were totally honest, most would have shit photos laying around the place...some might have shit photos of shit. Although taking photographs of actual shit seems pretty weird to me.
It is not uncommon! Do you know how many shaky and out of focus photos I've taken? Too many and many of them I've deleted... now I won't delete any of them hahahahaha
Or it happens that I'm taking pictures and I take pictures of the ground, at the feet hahaha
537?
I couldn't help but enjoy this post very much in its own way, with your crappy photos that are spectacular...😃
I have to keep thanking you for the new space for my real shitty pics, at least I'll go experimenting and going through some tutorials to see if I improve, even if it's just using my cel....
I can't give up can I?
Subscribed.
There's no giving up, one must forge on ahead no matter how many shit photos they take. 😊
Great idea! I bet there are gazillion photos on all those phones snapping away, mine included. I'll have to see if there are some outtakes that I care to share. Love the tag #shitography - LOL
I wouldn't believe a person if they said they'd never taken a shit photo. Anyway, I'm sure some less-shit ones will end up in here but if it's in here, it's shit. 😁
