 Poor Grog, Yo_Spiff alter ego, did not get to hunt down and hit over head new female. He had to wait with old female and wait for fish to jump out of big wet thing. He was sad because fish no jump and he go hungry. He had club ready to hit old female on head if she didn't hurry so he would stop getting laughed at for trying to fish with shiny box. But NO FISH. Will have to take female to Black Eyed Pea for Pot Roast instead of Thag's Tree Bark Casserole.

Steve and I had alot of fun with this shoot. It was so funny watching him try to change clothes at the lake. We got a ton of strange looks, quite a few questions and even a fisherman laughing while he took our pictures with his phone camera.

Next time it's my turn to do something embarrassing and kinda out of the box but don't think I'm ready to bare my backside to the camera like some we know would do. My oldest is a bit of a nudist and would without blinking an eye but NOT ME, so Steve, don't get any ideas.

Taking time to finally leave some comments. Now the chronicles of Grog can be complete - we have a confirmed sighting of him and pictures to boot:-)!!! Welcome to DPC, o'wife of Grog:-), and great work here. Lighting, composition and details are absolutely wonderful. This humorous shot is well done - will Grog use his hand to push the button on the keyboard or will he use his club:-) I giggled reading the description - yup what we crazy photographers do for our creative outlet;-) Congrats on the high finish.

Grog see very handsome subject while voting. Grog's female would like. 10 Grog would vote, but Grog is biased, so not vote. Grog is great fair-voter. You check helpful box or Grog leave toilet seat up in dark of night.
