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.

  • 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.

WHY ISNT SHE MOVING

[–]sscrofulous 23 points24 points ago

The line where it looks like the sand meets the water is actually the top of a slope that goes down to the water. That monster is going to crash below her. Cool illusion, though, right?

[–]jandalofdoom 23 points24 points ago

Hey kristafer825

Actually, I wondered this too.

[–]FLAMBOYANT_STARSHINE -1 points0 points ago

Im fairly certain they may be attempting sarcasm.

[–]othersomethings 4 points5 points ago

I think that's called forced perspective.

[–]JohnScribbles 7 points8 points ago

I thought reddit was against forcing perspectives on others

[–]newmansg 3 points4 points ago

Have you seen r/atheism?

[–]gjhgjh 3 points4 points ago

It's a .jpg file. Since you can't animate a .jpg file the single frame that you see gives the illusion that time has stopped forever.

[–]imsabbel 1 point2 points ago

This is taken with a telephoto, and features quite a bit of depth of field compression.

Look at the sand at her feet: There is acutally quite some distance between her and the shore (with sea level quite a bit below her).

[–]bixton 0 points1 point ago

She can't hear you, dude. YOU HAVE TO TYPE LIKE THIS. RUN LADY!

[–]zorospride 5 points6 points ago

Looks like the North Shore in the winter months. Those waves break 10 feet high or more on the beach sometimes.

[–]3065462 1 point2 points ago

Freaking beautiful. Except that hill is very inconvenient to climb back up.

[–]Koe-Rah-See 0 points1 point ago

New Zealand..?

[–]zorospride 0 points1 point ago

Hawaii

[–]chad1312 3 points4 points ago

[–]jjam6589 0 points1 point ago

Could someone post the picture without the lady?

[–]BouquetofDicks 1 point2 points ago

No.

[–]MessiahX 1 point2 points ago

Modern water bending looks quite boring compared to how it was done before.

[–]jandalofdoom 0 points1 point ago

She just looks so.... unimpressed.

[–]Ops-Salvation 1 point2 points ago

"Welp. This is going to suck."

[–]Rysdad 1 point2 points ago

Hanalei Bay on the north shore of Kauai is sorta like that. The sand is so porous that the waves crash a few feet in front of you and just sink into the sand. It's really weird, but cool.

[–]thetallestnebraskan 1 point2 points ago

North shore oahu, it goes about another 50-60 feet at least past where she is standing. but the waves there are fucking huge, dudes were surfing waves like that, no thanks.

[–]amberrgerr 0 points1 point ago

I had a nightmare like this when I was a toddler, and somehow still remember it to this day (I'm now 20). The wave had teeth and ate me and my family

[–]vb622 1 point2 points ago

Recurring one for me where I'm trapped at the bottom of a steep slope leading from the water to the beach. Huge wave behind me and every time I nearly make it up the slope, I slide back down

Edit: Still have this one....I'm 19

[–]FrankZappasNose 0 points1 point ago

And that was the last they saw of Mabel.

[–]CellularBeing -1 points0 points ago

OP DID YOU DIE?

[–]cespes 0 points1 point ago

"Eh, I've seen bigger"

[–]drumstyx -1 points0 points ago

Why is she wearing a t-shirt? I never understood why girls do this.

[–]borodino 0 points1 point ago

Pipeline.

[–]DMacattack420 -1 points0 points ago

"Well fuck"...

[–]jasonskjonsby 1 point2 points ago

[–]Kinishra22 0 points1 point ago

I miss Hawaii shouldn't of moved away

[–]anxcaptain 1 point2 points ago

sandies

[–]FataOne 0 points1 point ago

This is what I was thinking but it looks like it could also be North Shore.

Edit: Yeah, from the link someone posted above, it's Waimea Bay.

[–]ihaveacooch 0 points1 point ago

This is like every nightmare that I have had about the ocean come to life

[–]archonemis -1 points0 points ago

That chick's like, "Eh, fuck it. I've seen those before."

[–]KorovaDroog -1 points0 points ago

I bet Moses is behind the camera.

[–]torokunai 0 points1 point ago

basically a recurrent high-stress dream I get every so often, stuck in the sea dealing with weird breakers.

[–]Lord_Bumberchute -3 points-2 points ago

I bet waves like that make her soooo wet.
