Meanwhile, Mayo Clinic notes that laughter increases the endorphins released in our brains and stimulates our hearts, lungs, and muscles. We also relax far more after a good bout of laughter because our heart rates and blood pressure decrease.

In the long term, being a fan of comedy means that you’re more likely to have a more capable immune system, you’re less susceptible to pain, and your self-esteem is better.

'Bobby reaching for the ball against a beautiful sunset. We were taking photos of Bobby as the sun was quickly setting and disappearing behind the hill. I was changing the setting on my camera, to keep the detail on a black dog against a nice sky and soon realised, just go with the simple option and shoot him as a silhouette'
