yearning to love you more

A naturalist in Indonesia had his camera stolen by a crested black macaque, who used the equipment to take pictures of itself and its simian cronies. 

David Slater, victim of the thieving primates, said,

“At first there was a lot of grimacing with their teeth showing because it was probably the first time they had ever seen a reflection.

“They were quite mischievous jumping all over my equipment, and it looked like they were already posing for the camera when one hit the button.

“The sound got his attention and he kept pressing it. At first it scared the rest of them away but they soon came back - it was amazing to watch.

“He must have taken hundreds of pictures by the time I got my camera back, but not very many were in focus. He obviously hadn’t worked that out yet.

“I wish I could have stayed longer as he probably would have taken a full family album.”

 Hopefully the endangered animal snapped a picture of itself worthy of an OK Cupid profile.  Hint:  everyone knows the above-and-to-the-side trick.  This isn’t 2006, and you’re not on MySpace, monkey.

At least he didn’t turn on the sepia and make a duck face
