Funny Pictures And The
Internet
Funny pictures have exploded
into our consciousness thanks to the Internet, digital technology, mobile phone
cameras, and social media. We are flooded with funny images of cats, dingy dog
photos and silly squirrels taking on all the attributes of we humans. Tens of
thousands of photos are uploaded to the world wide web everyday with entire
sites devoted to compiling funny photos whether of our pets, stupid human tricks
or the foibles of friends and family.
Funny Photos And Animal
Antics
Funny photos also happen to
be the focus of my own professional photography. I have been shooting
professionally since 1976, and since 1990 I have been using Photoshop to create
humorous commercial photos. Since 1994 I have further concentrated efforts on my
Animal Antics line of funny pet and animal photos for greeting cards,
advertising and editorial uses.
Humor Adds Impact And
Interest
While I do create my share of
business images that do not employ humor, the vast majority of my photography,
to a greater or lesser degree, depends on some form of humor to add impact and
interest to my work. Nothing makes me feel better than seeing someone get
pleasure from viewing my photos…and I know that humor is one of the best ways to
catch a viewer’s interest and keep them remembering as time goes buy. Humor
entertains, funny pictures attract viewers, and a laugh or a chuckle is a sure
sign of success.
Humorous Greeting Cards And
More
In addition to the humorous
greeting cards we have, through the years, published funny animal calendars,
silly animal coffee mugs, pet picture frames, cat and dog Christmas ornaments,
veterinary reminder cards, funny jigsaw puzzles and more. From anthropomorphic
elephants to speeding Cheetahs to love birds, we are continually adding to our
collection of humorous images for paper and printed products. Under the heading
of “more” we also have beautiful lighthouse images, adventure travel photography
and even lions, tigers and bears…oh my!
Unexpected Twists, Facial
Expressions And Humor
There are a lot of different
ways to introduce humor into photography. Adding an unexpected twist (like an
angry lion in a waiting room), taking something really over the top (a bridge
made of men hanging on to each other’s ankles), a simple facial expression…and
the list goes on and on. I particularly enjoy creating subtle facial expressions
on animals that allow us to see the human qualities that they may, or may not
have, in actuality. And of course, facial expressions on our fellow humans are
also an effective means of introducing humor.
Laughter Is The Best Medicine
Whether the humor is
slapstick, droll, or tongue in cheek doesn’t really matter as long as it brings
a bit of cheer to viewer. In fact, I see funny photos as not just a way for
effective advertising, promotional and editorial imagery, I see it as a service
to mankind. Laughter is, after all, the best medicine. Laughter lowers our
stress levels and helps us to relax. Even the act of smiling has a positive
effect on our bodies and our psyches.
