Funniest Pose?

[drisley]

Ok, I already posted some pictures I took at this weekend's bodybuilding/fitness event. I found that I had captured quite a few humorous expressions, and I was curious which one you guys thought was the funniest.

I'm not poking fun at the competitors, but rather at my ability to capture people in the most inopportune moment.
Anyway, a few of these made me laugh :lol:

OMG. Those are funny. You gotta love what a camera can capture sometimes!

#3, looks like the guy has a bathroom problem:lol:

[drisley]

Haha, that's what I thought. I kind of knew that picture would take it all.

[Dante King]

Haha, that's what I thought. I kind of knew that picture would take it all.

Hey thats just what I was thinking. Seriously, are their accidents? I would think with that much pushing and tightening... Not trying to knock what is going on here, but I think a total uneducated BB like myself would like to know. How about heart attacks as this type of action is hard on the heart?

When I first saw these shots yesterday, I thought at first glance you had stuck somebody elses head on no.3's body, then I realsied it was for real and he was trying to show off his muscles - very funny!

[ayotnoms]

Just saw the vote results.
Looks like #3 is going to run away from the field.
...and not a moment too soon as he looks like he needs to settle accounts with nature like fast :-) :-)

[Skip Souza]

Are #3 and #4 related? The sure look similar. Both of their heads look way out of proportion to their bodies.

[drisley]

Haha. You know what is funny. I was talking backstage to one of the bodybuilders and he told me that he just learned the best way to emphasize his abs. He just had to assume the position of trying to pass gas *lol*
I told him to be careful, or he might have an accident. He said, "it's a natural bodily function, so if I do, that's ok" *lol*
As far as heart attacks go, I haven't heard of any. But what is somewhat common is people passing out from dehydration. It doesn't usually happen at these amateur events, but I once saw the newly crowned MR. Olympia pass out on stage as they had announced he had won. Some of the top pros not only restrict water intake to none for 24hrs, they go overboard and take dieretics as well. That is a big no-no.

[skade]

I'd have to say #3 & #4... you should send them all a copy of themselves! HAHAHA

[Carzee]

Funny photos!!

[ Hey Skade, how's that tripod going? ]

[skade]

Its great Carzee!! Alot of rain over here though, and too cold to be out and about, so I havent taken alot of shots in the last few weeks. And have been working too much to get online, so I barely get in here lately. Talk about withdrawal symtoms!! Lol

[witchy]

LOL, Some funny expressions amongst that lot, but I picked number 3 as the funniest :)

[JakeC]

:lol::lol::lol: Number 3 is a classic..... wouldn't want to be betting againest him in this one.

[Music to my eyes]

Who was it that said Arnold Schwartzenegger looked like a condom full of walnuts???........
They are great shots, - to me though, they all look kind of grotesque.....(yet I can't look away!)

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, of course.....

[schmoelzel]

Drisley these are great!!! Now that is what candid portraiture should be......#3 of course takes the cake and is the best one; but they are all awesome captures!! Nice work........

[CyberDyneSystems]

:lol:

I actually think #5 is a great photo... ie: not so awkward like the others but very expressive!

[pradeep1]

They almost don't look human in these photos. Amazing.

[drisley]

Thanks guys for voting.
Something bugs me about #3 though. Ithought I corrected horizontal/vertical lines in all these shots, but that one is still crooked. Thankfully his expression should hide that :)

[drisley]

Haha funny!
But stop the presses! I think I may have found new competition!

[schmoelzel]

#4 looks like someone pasted another persons head onto the body!! That isn't your mug is it Drisley??:) Again, I think they are all great and the detail in the muscles is incredible.

Now youve gone and done it Drisley. :confused: :p
To me it seems that on the viewer's right side of the subject the line is straight and on the left side it sort of falls away.

[drisley]

You got me schmoelzel! But actually it's my face on #6! :lol:
Skip, yes, I think those were 2 different ad boards ;)

[Lotto]

Muhahah, if you post one more pic of our hero #3, I would start to think that's only post he did. Imagine he walks like that during the whole competition?

btw, was he in the light weight class? Under 140 lb?

[drisley]

Lotto, I may actually have another. :)
I can't exactly remember what class he was in. I might be able to find out.
