I love the ironic and hilarious shots by photographer Ken Anderson. His images evoke a smirk and a smile as you realize that there is much more to them than meets the eye.
Anderson’s hilarious parody ads are where his talent shines brightest. In the gallery, we've featured a number of his best ad photos. You'll see his work for CNN where no one can tear themselves away from the TV even though there’s a burglar in the bedroom, Nationwide Insurance’s careless mechanic, career hints for CareerBuilder, and inappropriate noisemaking for Seinnheiser headphones. There's also my personal favorite, the farmer soaking in the tub for John Deere Credit.
