Yeah you heard me,I kick the tower, and so can you!Today is all about taking funny pictures! My brother and I do this all the time in our back yard. Before I even start talking about how you do these, we have to go through the procedure first!

Supplies:
To take pictures that'll make your friends scream, you will need: A digital camera with its USB cord (or whatever it is your camera has to plug into your computer), a computer (I think you knew that, but just in case), 2+ people (get your whole family to participate, it's an awesome way to spend time together), and lots and lots of ideas!

Now that that's out of the way, let's continue with how to take the actual pictures. This is going to take a lot of effort, and you are going to get very mad, very fast! Taking these pictures involves moving objects closer and farther away from your camera, making it really hard to take the perfect picture.

Try starting out with these ideas:
This is the easiest of them all to do, as long as you have a good photographer and a mail box! Go over to your mail box and stick your head in it (make sure you can get it out, because I don't want anything bad to happen to you), then your photographer will go around finding the right angle where it looks like your head is stuck in the mail box. Then, move your hands around a little to complete the image, Wha lha! You have your first amusing image! You can see the one my brother took of me above.
This one is a lot harder, so don't go crazy if you can't do it. Find a very tall object near your house. For me and my brother, it was a huge pine tree. I was the photographer, and he was the subject. He got close (but not "right up to the lens" close) to the camera and I got farther away from the pine tree. In this particular picture, we were trying to make it look like my brother was leaning on a tree. It's really hard and takes a bucket full of patience (sorry, another one of my random metaphors) and a lot of time. Good luck to you though.

When you are done taking all the pictures you want, upload them to your computer and show your friends and family. I love to see how other's are doing with their amusing pictures, so feel free to send me yours! I am davis@theandersonteam.com
Hope to see some of your pictures soon!
