The lawless prairies and budding 20th-century cities of Red Dead Redemption 2 were some of the most fleshed-out and stunning environments Rockstar Games has ever created. The interactive Western has been praised for its storytelling, its fully realized characters, and its vast open-world. The 2018 release came loaded with challenges, secrets, and Easter eggs to be tracked down, and RDR2's photo mode still has some of the game's most artistic players capturing stunning images of every detail it has to offer.
The in-game feature is accessible in the pause menu under the Camera tab. It lets players perfectly frame shots of protagonist Arthur Morgan or any of the title's other characters, wildlife, and landscapes. Some fans have only used it to take screenshots when they stumble upon one of RDR2's legendary animals, while others have lined up photos that look like they're straight out of a Spaghetti Western.
Red Dead's most talented photographers hitch their horses in the Red Dead Photography subreddit, where thousands of players share images of everything from action-packed shootouts to the serene nature found across RDR2. Even though the title came out years ago, this community of Redditors continues to find untapped, spectacular angles to view it from. Here is some of the best RDR2 photography.
Redditor MelodicToffee captured a shot of Arthur and original Red Dead Redemption protagonist John Marston sitting by a fire after a long day of riding. Their trousers are caked in mud, and both of them seem as if they're listening to one of Dutch van der Linde's winding stories before they hit the hay. It's a rare, vulnerable photo of two of the deadliest outlaws this side of the Lannahechee River.
While the average gamer might fall in love with RDR2's seemingly endless scale, Reddit users like improviseren find beauty in the painstaking detail Rockstar spend years crafting. The golden buttons on Arthur's shirt and jacket glitter in the moonlight as he prepares his rifle for what will likely be a fight that doesn't end well for his rival gang, RDR2's O'Driscoll Boys.
The world of RDR2 is home to 200 unique animal species. Critters like hares and deer roam the game in search of virtual sustenance, while others are programmed to make a meal of Arthur. Redditor Red_Dead_Photo_Guy managed to snag a photo seconds before a hungry wolf pounced on the wounded protagonist. It's but one example of the dangerous wildlife lurking in the shrubs and snow of RDR2.
RDR2 has a fast-travel feature, but many players choose to ignore it because of how breathtaking its simulated West can be. Reddit user Gaymerlad spooked a flock of birds as they were crossing a river on horseback, which resulted in a perfect still of the game's natural beauty.
Sleeping is an important part of RDR2. Not only do NPCs do it, but it's one of the quickest ways to refresh Arthur's Health, Stamina, and Dead Eye gauges after many long days of troublemaking. Reddit user Hola_Senor_Marston came across a rancher who was taking a load off before he had to gather his cattle for the day. Clearly, there's beauty around every corner in Red Dead Redemption 2.
