Arthur Mebius captures moments through a comedic lens. The best photography award winner creates one frame stories where he seeks to show the "past, present and future" in a single funny photo.

Mebius has worked in photography for over 15 years and has created signature hilarious image plots for advertising agencies large and small. The artist even produces film projects and says he can shoot 25 frames per second when briefed accordingly, "The stories that I like to shoot can be funny, curious, compelling, filled with plot twists or all at once."

When you look at the eclectic portfolio of Mebius, it isn't hard to see why he has been recognized by the likes of D&AD, ADC, Cannes, Epica and the PANL Sony Award. And though his works include quite a lot of photo editing, he still manages to portray the scenarios in a highly believable way. In addition to his commercial advertising gigs, the photographer stays busy with numerous personal projects.

    It's from an advert for a pregnancy test. No-one seemed to get that is was supposed to be a joke (when you really really REALLY want to be sure), so was a massive advertising fail.

    Nice! But actually pregnancy tests only work inthe first trimester. A friend of mine did thetest in her third trimester (we wanted to use the test as an April Fool’s joke) and it came back negative )joke’s on us). She gave birth to a healthy baby girl two weeks later.

    Not all tests determine baby gender. In fact most of the tests are only 65% accurate. Maybe the couple has decided to test for gender. Maybe though, they just found out they don't have hard water! Lol.

    I think I’ve seen this before on an ad for a home pregnancy test, with a slogan along the lines “When you want to be 100% certain”....sort of like “Yeah you’re pretty sure, but if you wanna be COMPLETELY sure...”

    Every explanation I've ever read for this is that it's for a GENDER test. As in, we knew for months we were having a baby, now we're excited to learn if it's a boy or a girl.
