This photograph was shot in Hawaii and then digitally inserted behind a group of singing elephants. This elephant photo features four African elephants harmonizing their voices like a barbershop quartet.
What we’re about...John Lund has been a professional photographer for over thirty years. He started doing assignment photography and then moved into stock photography, which is currently his emphasis. You can check out John’s website at www.johnlund.com. About twenty years ago John discovered the wonders of Photoshop and then ten years ago he approached a greeting card company about starting a line of funny animal cards, featuring, of course, funny animal pictures. As part of that project he created the brand, John Lund’s Animal Antics.
This series includes digitally manipulated photos of dogs, cats, mice, rabbits, chickens, lions and many other kinds of animals. These are anthropomorphic images; that means that the animals are made to have many of the qualities of people. To create these pictures John has an animal trainer pose the animals for digital photos that provide the source material for John’s creative digital manipulation. Parts are taken from several photos and put together in Photoshop to create each of John’s funny photos.
John created almost two hundred funny animal pictures for the greeting card company. Many are still in production but the rest are available here on Cafe Press, printed on greeting cards, mugs, t-shirts, tote bags, mouse pads, stickers, hats and all of the rest of the great merchandise offered here in our store.
The Animal Antics series is not all that John offers on this site. In recent years he started a series of really fun images of elephants in unique situations, flying, riding a unicycle, hiding in a tree, and more. John’s associate Stephanie Roeser has also created some very challenging images using John’s elephant source material. She started with the elephant floating with a balloon and an elephant in yoga, tree pose; then she moved on to create the elephant in Rodin’s thinker pose and several more. We also have fire breathing dragon photos, digitally created by Stephanie.
For the cow lovers in our audience, John has also recently put together a few Holstein Cow pictures and more will be coming.
Uploading the photos to this site takes time and we’re working hard to get all of John’s great images up and available to be printed on all of the products available here as gifts or just for fun. We are always creating new and inspiring animal pictures so check back regularly to see what’s new. So, go back up to the top and look for the photos mentioned here. Have fun...
Thank you for visiting our Cafe Press store.
