Meet the Stock Photobomber. He is a Matt Vescovo, a 45-year-old man who photobombs ... well, stock photos, and the results are absolutely hilarious.
The Los Angeles resident, an animator by trade, believes that his recent stock photobomb series "injects reality into an unreal world by injecting himself."
That it does. That it most certainly does.
Except for that creepy guy in the background ...
Stock photos, of course, are the images seen many times per day on websites, advertisements and other promotional materials, even picture frames.
They are taken exactly for these purposes, whether you realize it or not. Vescovo clearly notices them, and decided to have some fun at their expense.
"I was in a gift shop and I happened to walk by the aisle where they sell picture frames," Matt tells BuzzFeed of the inspiration for his amazing series.
"I remember looking at the stock photo of the smiley family in a loving embrace they had in the frame and thinking to myself: 'They're not a family.'"
"'They're actors who met 10 minutes before they took this.' It felt a little fake to me and so I thought, 'I know what will make it more real, if I'm in there.'"
"I think photobombing is such a big thing these days and I just happened to take it and add a little twist," he says of his theme and amusing technique.
"I do it all on Photoshop. God bless Photoshop."
"The reaction has been pretty amazing," Vescovo notes, remarking that, especially in this day and age, "people really seem to like the photobombs."
That they do, Matt. That they do.
What a ham! This squirrel jumps up and turns a basic vacation photo into a legendary snapshot.
