Any photographer of animals knows that producing the camera to capture the antics has the effect of stopping games immediately.

Why are you pointing that camera at us, Hu-Dad?

Roscoe and Typhoon were having the ultimate wrestling match on the deck. Nothing hindered them running back and forth and creating a giant racket…until Hu-Dad decided to capture a few photos of the games. The second the camera came out, all play stopped, and the boys did their best to look innocent.

Typhoon and I playing? Does it look like we were playing?

Hu-Dad took several pictures of them milling about the deck until he finally gave up and put the camera away. The games immediately recommenced.

The zen of Roscoe.
