Make Me Laugh

August 2020

This is a great photo. Every aspect of this photo is expertly done. The subject matter is great as well.

This is clearly photoshopped. But it is so well done. The stylized background and coloring give you an otherworldly feel. I found this funny and intriguing at the same time. It is both surreal and real at the same time.

Wonderful storytelling here.

What an amazing shot! The look on the dogs face is priceless. This is one a one in a million action shot that captures so much. Hilarious.

It is so difficult to get a good action shot. The lighting and composition are spot on. Great work!

What has been seen cannot be unseen.

This is a very funny picture. I cannot tell if it has been photoshopped. To me, it looks like it was done with a zoom lens and cropped. The clarity is not great. But I assume the subjects would not be enthusiastic about being photographed in the nude.

There ain't a dog that can't be broken. And there ain't a cowboy clown that can't be thrown.

Very funny picture. You had a good focus while capturing the action. The color is outstanding. Not over-processed and gives you a sense of the rodeo atmosphere.

This is an amazing shot. I didn't think it was funny at first. But upon closer inspection the way the top bird is pulling on the other bird's head is humorous. The detail that you captured in the feathers is wonderful.

Really incredible work here.

Hands down my favorite picture in this context. You have captured a uniquely funny moment. The water makes me feel like I am getting wet. The dog's tongue cracks me up. The kid's smile is beguiling. What an amazing shot.

Great composition and lighting. You really captured something special here.

This is the only way to fix a Mercedes.
I laughed a lot at this picture.

Great execution on the subject matter. Lighting is perfect for a 70's era Northern European feel. Based on the notes it is authentic.

This one definitely made me laugh.

Very creative editing. At first glance, I thought it was real. Excellent lighting and subject matter. It made my morning coffee much more enjoyable.

I will have to follow your work and see what other creations you have come up with.

Clearly this guy is a character. Great photography and composition. I almost didn't give it the top ten because of the offense. But isn't that what makes it hilarious?

I am wondering if this is from a professional wedding photographer. If not you have a knack for this. Is so, you have made your calling.

Wonderful memory being captured here. :D

Literally on the verge of making my top 10. I laughed at this one for a while. I made it 11 due to it being slightly out of focus.

I really wanted to give you a top ten spot but needed to reserve them for the best photography as well as the subject.

Not what you expect out of your superheroes. Why are the Flash and Superman looking at Batman's ... Breaking some serious man rules there.

A+ on creativity. Really caught my attention and made me laugh.

Composition and lighting capture the mood of a men's room. Good job!

I saw this reviewing your photos before I created the contest. I laughed then and again when I saw it here.

Excellent composition and lighting. You really capture a moment.

The subject is adorable and clearly loves to put on a show.

Top marks here!

Meet the judge

I found this photo particularly funny. I wish I could have made it to the top ten.

The clarity is incredible and the subject is striking. This bird looks really happy.

Keep up the great work. This is a great picture.

This one almost made the top ten. He clearly is seeking attention. :D

This one almost made the top ten. I believe that it was a snapshot in the sense that you captured a quick moment. Great color and subject matter.

Clearly Photoshopped and funny as hell. What a great picture. Composition and color A+.

You did a marvelous job at telling a story here. It invokes the conflict between predator and prey. Only this time the prey fight back.

Reminds me of Caddy Shake for some reason.

:D

All I could say is "WTF?!" Why is there a goat with him? I have been to Rome and never seen a goat. So random. Great color and composition. Everything is in focus and captures a very funny moment.

Bravo!

I really enjoyed this photo. It came very close to making my top 10.

The subject is very funny. You really captured something special here. I laughed a lot about this.

Just a suggestion, but you may want to crop a little of the left out to make it adhere to the rule of thirds more.

What a wonderful photo.

This is why women outlive men. This is hilarious. If he were in Texas he would have said:

"Hey y'all! Watch this!"

That would have been followed by someone else saying:

"Hold my beer"

This is a great action shot. The subject remains in focus and follows the rule of thirds. It really looks like he is flying away.

Wonderful pic.

Bravo! I laughed a good bit over this one. It would have ranked hight if it were balanced more on the exposure. Looks like it was an action shot and perhaps cropped from a larger frame. But overall a great shot. Just missed the top ten.
