- I can't believe those rats were responsible for this show!

- Why not? They were also responsible for the bubonic plague!

A guy I know somewhat said the other day that my best friend Karin & I sound like Statler & Waldorf. That made me laugh so hard. I love Statler & Waldorf, best hecklers ever.

I couldn't resist. He's *so* grumpy!

Nova in an unusual position, being a grouchy old man. I have never seen him sit this way before and I laughed so hard at the look on his face when I asked him what he was doing.

A picture of my girlfriends with loads of my pictures on a wall in the background. Converted to B&W and added radial blur around her face on photoshop.

A great way to start a day at the Fair...

Further down, this other fish monger at the Vinh Long market could surely use some cheer.

Hand over the treats already.

I relaly don't know what I was thinking! :D

There is always something new to slap you upside the head. I think that is why I find photography so challenging. Not only do you need to know how all of your gear works, from aperture to flash, but knowing how to get your subject to cooperate can be a long uphill pull.

For instance, you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make a grandchild fake a happy smile. It's easy to get grownups to smile. Just tell them you're posting their photo on the internet. Great blackmail. But you can't make a cat a willing model for a portrait, even if you put catnip in a toy mouse. They LIKE their grumpy pictures on the internet.

I'm going to have to be more cunning. Use more tricks. I'm going to have to get inside the heads of children and cats, learn their weak points and use them to my advantage. This train hasn't reached the station yet, but when it does, I'm going to be the one tooting the horn.

came out to drink earlier tonight. He's a Banded Gila monster (Heloderma suspectum cinctum). Gila monsters are endangered and venomous, spending atout 90 percent of their time sleeping in burrows in their native habitat of the southwestern United States. Photo by Frank

Grumpy ol man

she was actually really really sweet, just had a grumpy face :)

Close up of grumpy tiger.

This tiger just didn't like me. Every time I got near the fence to take a photo is jumped at the fence trying to attack. She was just plain bad to the bones.

OLYMPUS OM-D E-M5

If that pile of snow would be alive, it probably would be a bit grumpy.

There was a bunch of sleepy pukifee... except for one, who had raided the pantry again and was way too preoccupied for sleep.

Grumpy Bear Lives! Taken about a year ago at Mont Tremblant, this photo is the one used in my profile pic. The smile says I just may enjoy being grumpy (a little). The ears are courtesy of a goofy hat from my friend Atousa.

some more photoshop fun

Infant babies has such a range of expressions. Angelique was only a few weeks old when this photo was taken. She likes to eat, frequently.. and if she doesnt get the bottle, she gets grumpy and cries. But.. give her too much and it all comes back up.

He looks like an old man.
