Fake fart, Jasper, Indiana, photo copyright Brian Lehmann
I love this picture by photographer Brian Lehmann. While visiting Jasper, Indiana, Brian made this classic feature photograph of boys “reenacting the smell of a fake fart during their school’s talent show tryout”. What makes it for me is the wonderful use of elements throughout the frame, expertly positioned and balanced. Your eye follows the action in a complete circle and ends right back at the subject. The timeless and universal quality of boys’ behavior reminds me of high school days at the all-boys Catholic school. This is a perfect example of weaving in the photographer’s humorous personality into a photograph that stands the test of generational time.
