The best part of these is that they're not really very dangerous at all. It looks like an imposing force, but then the dirt does basically nothing. The wind can be strong, though.

Mammatus clouds look like the end of the world. This is not 'shopped.

Yeah just mainly dust. I love the monsoon season of Phoenix.

That is the definition of "awesome," in the worst way, of course.

Half the people in this thread should look up the meaning of ominous:

"Giving the impression that something bad or unpleasant is going to happen."

You can repeat it as much as you want, but sadly, it's not going to sink it.

See the "Iconic shots from movies" threads. They quickly, within a few replies, turn into "your favourite scenes from movies" threads.

I can't imagine being talked into standing at the front.

How accurate was actually the portrayal in "Saving Private Ryan" ?

Did soldiers really get shot the second the ramps got lowered?

Yes, especially the 1st to land. That and they were cut down by MG42s. The MG42 was nicknamed the "bonesaw" for a reason.

Absolutely. The German gunners trained the sights on the boat and just waited for the door to drop. This caused some troops to bail out over the sides of the boats, and many hundreds drowned because the water was too deep and their kits were too heavy.

The guy was just fine:

It seems sharks are like Spiders, they're not going to bother humans unless we make a big spectacle of it. They don't even like big boat engines.

Sometimes they really like boat engines. And will often "taste" them.

Photoshop's work not Roland Emerich's.

FTFY.

You can't even joke with the word God without presumptions being about your beliefs? Jesus Christ.

Wasn't shopped.

[riceckr]

There was a reddit article not long ago that talked about some photographer that was taking pictures of a volcano that erupted. He knew he was going to die so he kept taking pictures and laid on the camera to protect the film.

Here is an article about it:

Yes it was.

Can't argue with that or with anyone who has a Lionel Mandrake wearing a Bane mask avatar for that matter.

You can't even joke with the word God without presumptions being about your beliefs? Possibly fictitious man who may or may not have been the son of a fictitious entity some people worship.

I can't believe people still fall for this shit, lol! The immediate give away is the Hollywood 50ft tidal wave. It's not even a good photoshop!

 

[Cat Party]

It looks like a still from one of those pretend natural disaster shows on Discovery or whatever. Looks like cheap CG, not a shop.

[Ithil]

Knowing the full story of this photo gives it a very different "ominous" feel.

 

[Melchiah]

Absolutely amazing!

 

[mercviper]

Not the most ominous picture ever, but I took this on my way to work about a year and a half ago.

That shot is from the driver side window, and you could see it straight in front of me as well as it tapering off to my right on the passenger side window.

I didn't even notice it until in my mid-morning stupor I suddenly had the thought, "Wow we have a pretty nice mountainside backdrop in

Spoiler

Houston

. Wait a minute..."

Definitely felt like I was driving towards my doom.

Not sure how the most iconic photograph of the last century got missed out:
