Snapping candid photos, whether it’s catching a friend mid-laughter or your dog in a playful moment, is always a blast (or sometimes, we end up in the frame ourselves!). It’s exciting and a bit unpredictable—will it be a blurry mess or a shot that deserves a spot on the wall at home, you never know. The Accidental Art Gallery subreddit, in their own words, is the ultimate destination for such spontaneous (read: accidental) shots. Here are some of their most captivating photos.
