You Should See Him Dance

You might be wondering what made the man in the photograph below make such faces. Was it something sour that he ate or maybe it was bitter? Perhaps both? Or had he been suddenly shot out of a cannon? (As opposed, say, to being squeezed gently from a cannon.) Or did he smell something that was foul? Who is this character?

Actually, my son Calvin and his wife Stacey were visiting this past Mother’s Day. While showing him my new Dimage X50 camera, I suggested we try the Multi Frame feature and asked Calvin to make some faces. I pressed the button, pointed the camera, and away he went making some extreme faces. The rest is visual history.
