The first time I saw my photos do this I was at first angry...what the heck is wrong with my camera, then it occurred to me it had to do with frame rate. Thanks for posting these, it is really amazing.

I did a image search on Google and looked up this person's name, I could find nothing similar. I found a Facebook page, but there are a half-dozen of them with similar names so I did not bother signing in to check them all out.

You at least want to get the spelling of his name right, don't you?

What of the other two characters in the picture?

Why should they get off free?

Why do they get a pass from you?

For the same reason they blur out nipples.

While attending a conference and extremely bored, I'm finding ways to keep myself entertained.

Like finding places to put this quarter.
