Apples!

I would classify this image as a humorous photo. None of the individual parts of the photo are funny on their own; instead, the way that each of these individual parts works together helps make the image on of humor. The focus of the photo is a whole bunch of normal red and green apples that could be seen in any supermarket, orchard, or hungry hand. There is nothing comical about these apples. However, within the context of the picture, the apples become a source of humor. The context or frame that the apples fall within the photo is inside an old, junky, lime green car. It is not the typical form of apple transportation that one would inspect. Simply looking at the photo raises questions for the audience. Is it easier to haul apples in a compact car than in a pickup or truck? How did the person even get all those apples in there? How did the person close the doors without letting the apples out? Is the driver covered in apples as well? Where are all the apples going?
It is interesting that this photo may not be funny to all people who view it. It sort of depends on one's individual perspective or view of the situation. It appears that this car is a foreign model, so it is likely that the photo was taken outside the United States. It may be normal to haul apples this way in other countries. Also, the people who are hauling these apples may think it is a complete normal way of transporting apples from one location to another and would therefore find no humor in the situation. Although the photo was taken from a website full of funny pictures, one must also consider the possibility that its original purpose was not meant to be funny. Perhaps it was supposed to show the desperate measures people in a particular location must take in order to turn the labor (growing apples) into profit. Once again, context falls into play as a major determining factor for overall meaning.

What's your guess? How many apples are in this car (including those on top)? My guess = 6,945. That is a whole lot of carbohydrates!
