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.

This is called, "Expansion" by Paige Bradley.

[–]imbcmdth 0 points1 point ago

I thought it was about heartburn.

[–]LetMeMagicThatForYou 16 points17 points ago

[–]ABPositive03 0 points1 point ago

I would run this card in R/G ramp decks.

[–]ManCalledBigIsland 6 points7 points ago

That looks like it's taken from the Brooklyn Heights side of the Brooklyn Bridge, but I don't know that statue.

Truly awesome piece, would love to see IRL.

[–]piedplatypus 8 points9 points ago

This is stunning.

[–]rad465 7 points8 points ago

Wow, this is amazing. Where is this?

[–]Andrew_Would 3 points4 points ago

Somewhere in new York.

[–]deeman18 3 points4 points ago

Did anyone else think of Wind Waker?

[–]pizearke 0 points1 point ago

Yes.

[–]Zephrous 0 points1 point ago

no but now that you mention it, it's even more awesome!

[–]NotAlana 5 points6 points ago

My almost 8 year old son ran up and wanted to see this. He thought it was awesome.

[–]POULTRY_PLACENTA 5 points6 points ago

He just wanted to get a closer look at some vulva.

[–]NotAlana 0 points1 point ago

I was somewhat expecting a reaction to the fact that it's a naked statue... but he was cool about it. We don't really shy away from nudity though I'm pretty strict about not allowing overly sexual images on the television.

[–]bobstay 0 points1 point ago

There was vulva? looks again

Disappointed :(

[–]thejmanjman 15 points16 points ago

this should help

[–]Jay_Normous 1 point2 points ago

I remember the first time I saw this picture, it took me an embarrassingly long amount of time to realize that this was, in fact, a statue and not a real person who had been painted. What a fantastic piece

[–]kunfaux 1 point2 points ago

woah woah, where is this? obviously in brooklyn, but where!?

an upvote for whoever finds the source/location! thanks in advance

[–]ikek9 1 point2 points ago

I have known Paige since preschool and she is a phenomenal artist. This is a fairly old pic. It is a sculpture she did, and if memory serves, she just photographed it there; it is not permanently in that spot... Could be wrong...

[–]lilygrove 0 points1 point ago

deets

[–]Pyowin 1 point2 points ago

Reminds me of Han Solo being freed from the carbonite.

[–]amitnagpal1985 1 point2 points ago

It's nice, will not crack a nerdy joke on how it looks like she is splitting between two universes.. Damn!

[–]jennanatalia 0 points1 point ago

wow, is this statue still there?

[–]Pootytang001 1 point2 points ago

"I should have known this would crack in the kiln, it's way too big. Maybe I can put a light bulb in it or something and people will think it's deep."

[–]beep41 0 points1 point ago

Where can I find that?

[–]Blue_Falcon 0 points1 point ago

I wish there was a better picture of this for a background, but awesome artwork is awesome.

[–]cynthiadangus 0 points1 point ago

I remember this being one of the first posts I ever saw on Reddit when I joined 10 months ago. Every time I see it reposted, which occurs about once every 4 or 5 days, I get a little twinge of nostalgia :')

[–]xxfrisketxx 0 points1 point ago

http://youtu.be/Ov3OWGP9T_4 expected this here

[–]Ryo95 0 points1 point ago

Keep calm, don't turn your back and don't blink. Don't even blink. Blink and you're dead. Good luck.

[–]erickadue32 0 points1 point ago

Modern day Athena.

[–]bassboat1 0 points1 point ago

Well titled, OP

[–]ThoughtfulBeing 0 points1 point ago

Really love this picture

[–]Vahingonilo 0 points1 point ago

This is what happens to girls that hold in too many farts.

[–]N64all -1 points0 points ago

BOOBIES!!!!

YOU'RE SO FUCKING CREEPY STOP OBJECTIFYING THE BODIES OF SCULPTURES AND TREATING THEM LIKE JUST PIECES OF PLASTER

[–]chabanais -1 points0 points ago

Those breasts are plaster?

[–]cynthiadangus 1 point2 points ago

I don't know. I just meant it as a funny alternative to 'pieces of meat.' Not my best work, but I still stand by it.

[–]chabanais -1 points0 points ago

Plaster would have been easier to remake.

[–]ChuckYeah -1 points0 points ago

"Hmm do you have any sacred artwork of her from the back?"

[–]TheW0rld1sMyCanvas -1 points0 points ago

Weirdest boner going on right meow.

[–]reagan2016 -2 points-1 points ago

Cool statue bro.

[–]Agnostix -2 points-1 points ago

This full lotus attempt is insultingly incorrect.

She really needs to anchor her wrists to her knees, or fold her hands in her lap.

[–]DanHall -2 points-1 points ago

And nipples.
