The Third Wheel photo series just gets funnier and funnier the more you browse through it. At first, the candid, film-like look of each image gives the impression that these shots involve real people and real situations. In fact, this idea behind this series would make a great photoblog. Yet slowly it becomes clear that these instances are definitely staged, especially considering how ludicrous they become.
Shot by West Australian Jackson Eaton, The Third Wheel photo series shows that he certainly has a great sense of humor. Although some may think these scenarios are somewhat creepy, many more will see them as endearing. It is as if the 'third wheel' is all of these couples' best friend, there to share all of their tender moments from expressions of love to the birth of their babies.
