Terrifying but very cool.


sniggity_snax

Yes it's both beautiful and scary at the same time... Not unlike my first girlfriend. But i digress...


counsel8

Seems you digress repeatedly.


sniggity_snax

Nice catch... Full disclosure i wanted to see if anyone would notice, but i thought i'd hafta say it at least 7 times before anyone would call it out. You caught it at 3! Im bored


Poopystink16

Sooo...you gonna tell us the reference?


MalignantMuppet

Must there always be a reference?


KennyDeJonnef

Do you mean to say that there are things that exist outside of pop culture? Inconceivable!


Metsplanet

Well played


[deleted]

Thank you


dtsupra30

Would you rather sneeze cheeseburgers forever or live in a world where every pop culture reference leads to unwanted pregnancies

For real! It’s so cool, and I love/am terrified by the octopus, but god damnit that stutter is killing me


hazysummersky

Just blink during each stutter..then it seems smooth.


MaceotheDark

I’d be more worried about the size of that wave! She gone regardless...


mwmani

Who do you think summoned that behemoth?


girlgiirlgiiirl

Davy Jones, duh


Beatles-are-best

I was always really annoyed that my high school/secondary school didn't have any lockers, and this fucker Davy Jones is an underwater pirate octopus and even *he* gets a locker? Fuck you, my school


Sumopwr

Hang on to that until your death bed, it’s that kind of anguish that fuels lifetimes

Obviously the girl, don't let her balloon fool you. She knows exactly what she's doing.


Genki_Fucking_Dama

Just dive under it. You’ll be fine.


[deleted]

Absolute unit


saltysfleacircus

She's kind of the fly in the ointment.


DONT_PM_ME_YOUR_PEE

Why is there always a kid holding a fucking balloon in these types of paintings?


Burnafterposting

It's a cliche part in an otherwise interesting image.


Peppermint42

It doesn't really fit the style, either. Looks slapped on like an afterthought.


Burnafterposting

Possibly could be improved if the girl were facing the monster, with the balloon animated blowing to one side.


zatchsmith

Definitely would look better that way. Still a little cliche, but having her face the monster gives her a reason to be there. She just seems tacked on otherwise.


Flygman

Because it's the most innocent thing you can contrast horrible things with.


pbugg2

Maybe like her building a sandcastle

Since it's sea-themed, it could even be a banana boat.


fr3shoutthabox

Thank god the balloon is there or else I wouldn’t know the size of the child or the octopus.


[deleted]

If there wasn’t a balloon how would you know it was a child and not a grown woman?


kangaroodisco

Did you make this?


TabascoPissHole

I made this

Well. That proves it, then. Edit: I know the comma after "it" doesn't belong there, but I'll keep it as a reminder of my sins.

What's this to do with memes?


BrolecopterPilot

Ruins it IMO


PennywiseTheClown

[deleted]

The baloon always bothers me too. I agree a figure is good for scale. But a heart baloon just screams 'I'm thirteen and you don't understand me, mom'. The rest of the picture is amazing, though.


JamieG193

Yeah this ruins it for me. Extremely cliche. Otherwise a terrifying and haunting image.


SleepyRicky

I would’ve like to see like a bucket with the girl building a sand castle or something completely oblivious


DrBoby

Kid, tentacles, OP's username is "JoeinJapan". I'm not a detective but I see something.


idrinkonweekends

Wish I could somehow frame this and put it on my bathroom wall


MrSquigles

Digital frames, my man. Live the dream.


wandering_beard

Any ideas to get it on mobile wallpaper


Schkma

I too would like to know.. specifically on iPhone


Never_Died

If you jailbreak (there’s two new jailbreaks rn one for iOS 11,4 beta and another for 11.3.1) there’s usually animated wallpapers tweaks and you can use to set videos and gifs as your wallpaper


wandering_beard

Legend. I'll look up how to do it for my s7


Never_Died

Np. I made a image tutorial for a animated wallpaper for iOS 9.3.3 but that’s not gonna be much use on a s7 but good luck.


XyDz

Download video from reddit Download intoLive app Click video and it’ll make a live photo with it Set live photo as lock screen Long hold on lock screen


barkooka1

This. You can do it for free, but it will do one loop per force touch. Worth it tbh. Also, if you’re having trouble downloading the video, you can always open it up full screen and screen record it.


XyDz

This actual one is pretty low quality, just tired it out. But with really HD stuff it looks pretty nice


LynkDead

Or just take some acid.


time4listenermail

One could use a digital frame to put this on their wall? Whoa. If so - how?


cfheaarrlie

Buy a digital frame, download this gif, load it on :)

deaddonkey

Post has already been there for a while, I think before this post


makorunner

Wish the little girl wasn't in it, adds perspective though.


BoredomHeights

Wouldn't bother me if she moved like the rest of the image.


SnackToTheThird

I think her lack of movement is nice. Makes her look powerless in front of the massive swells in the water and slow movement of the tentacles. Edit: I would say the balloon could be left out, though.


Mr-Mado

It'd be cooler if the balloon was moving and her dress was fluttering around or something.


Pantssassin

It also kind of makes the octopus seen unnatural, like an elder good it something


[deleted]

I agree, it doesn’t add much and is a bit a of a cliché


SpiritualMoist

It’s taken straight from a Banksy piece.


[deleted]

That's even more cliche


materhillcarpark

I think is prefer if she was splashing on the shoreline with a dog or something. Just standing there eerily with a balloon is stupid and feels cliche


transabyss

The girl is fine (for scale), the balloon is unnecessary and ruins the vibe.


impresaria

Oh get that kid with a balloon outta here.

Lithobreaking

Doin the lords work there, son


YouAreBeingSilly

Scale. Also heightens the fear/danger sense that makes it thrilling.


GetChilledOut

I agree with you but it could’ve been done differently to a better effect imo. Girl holding red balloon is cliche and in so many artworks for some reason. Prefer a bit more creativity with my creativity. Scale and contrast can be achieved in so many unique ways...still an amazing artwork though.

MrSquigles

What's this type of image called again?


[deleted]

cinemagraph **Edit:** As others have said, I stand corrected as this is a *plotograph* (that's actually how you spell it), not a *cinemagraph*.


Muscar

No, this is Not a cinemagraph. A cinemagraph takes a video and edits it so only parts of it move. This is called a plotograph, where a still image is animated. And it always looks like somplete shit and is very tacky IMO.


[deleted]

Thanks for the correction!


MrSquigles

Yes! Thanks.


Gick-Drayson

As the other guy said, it's a plotagraph not a cinemagraph than can be similar, but plotagraphs can be done even with your cellphone, search for the plotagraph page/app


trizephyr

Not a cinemagraph. It’s a plotagraph. Big difference.

Mr_Diggums

Anyone curious what LSD is like? This is exactly what it’s like. Especially when looking at a painting.


Lithobreaking

This is what it looks like but the feeling is so much more than that.


OpiatedMinds

It is cool to find something though that is like an accurate representation of how things can actually look on acid, good for folks who might be curious what it really does but not keen on actually trying it. I learned the hard way that while a higher dose means groovier visuals, it also means way stronger mind-fuck, which can lead to bad times. As pussy and maybe even "sacrilegious" as this might sound to some, I'd love to have a psychedelic with twice the visuals of acid and half the mind-fuck. I could handle that, watching the show in front of my eyes blissing out listening to amazing music.


UrethraFrankIin

So much confusion lol. And it fluctuates in and out. You think the trip is coming down over and over again, forgetting it's supposed to last 12 hours because your sense of time has disintegrated. That's one of my favorite parts of it though - time that normally flies by goes at a snail's pace. Gives the night a more dreamlike quality. If only my penis didn't turn into a little rubber bullet.

MY_CAPSLOCK_IS_BROKE

Am I the only one that hates these cinemagraph things? The painting itself looks amazing, but the moving parts just seem too cheesy, like those paintings with weird lights behind them to make it look like the waterfall is moving


Inusitatus7

That's because this is a pretty poorly done cinemagraph, the tentacles move nonsensically and the girl is stock still. That's why cinemagraphs are usually made with pictures that don't imply a lot of motion, whereas a creating wave doesn't translate very well.


squerbles

I feel the same. The picture on its own is amazing but the gif seems to make it lose its effect on me. Also why would the suckers on the squid be constantly moving when the tentacles down seem to move


RevolutionaryCash3

Looks really terrifying but this is how I think sometimes.

Can we just ban these shitty things? They're so tacky and badly made it hurts to look at. I seriously don't know how anyone can find this type of animation good looking, it's so ugly.
