Stranger Photos

On the theme of photos, I also really love this page - Stranger Photos Have Happened, Vol. 1. Basically, some fantastic, creative person has tied a disposable camera to a park bench for the day with a little note asking whoever finds it to take some pictures.

On revisiting the page today I found that they now have a Volume 2, Tokyo edition. Both pages are super cute and quirky. I love the original, fun, trusting idea and would love to do something like this one day to see the results!

It made me think of being in other people's photographs and I wonder how many other people's photos I am actually in. I have traveled a little (19 countries and counting!!) and have often found myself ducking out of the way or getting caught in the back of other traveller's photographs. I have a ton of randoms in the back of my pictures so I wonder if I am in someone's photo album on their coffee table on the other side of the world. What a fun thought!!

I once read somewhere that someone wanted to go to Disneyland, pick one family and follow them around for the day. That way, when they'd look back at their photos they would seem the SAME person always lurking around! Hilarious.

Hope you find this site super fun too! :)

Awkward Family Photos

This brilliant website (and book!) never fails to make me laugh. The photos are so real, so hilarious and so terribly, terribly awkward. Some are downright crazy, some cringe-worthy but most of them will have you feeling very grateful that this is not your family!

This one actually reminds me of a family I know! Scary!

 

Oh dear, Grandma!

Ummm, what?

Even better (in my opinion) than Awkward Family Photos is AWKWARD FAMILY PET PHOTOS!

This page has some of the best photos I have even seen and has induced that hysterical, silent, shaking laughter where you can't speak and just clap your hands like a retarded seal.

The best thing about this site is that it always ends in asking one question - WHY??! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, WHHYYYYYY?!

Who are these people, and why oh why did they think this was a good idea?! haha

But why the shower cap?

 

Definitely my favourite - the jumper, the glasses, the sneaky pony tail and, of course, the lasers!

Please, oh please, visit this site - you won't regret it!
