52 Snapshots of Life: "Black" and "Sleepy"

The 52 Snapshots of Life challenge "Black" proved challenging indeed. Struggling for an idea, I came up with turning Toby black via PicMonkey or the app ColorStrokes. 

That's thirty minutes of my life I'll never get back. Guess what? It's not as easy as it sounds. So that idea was a dud.

The next day I did some volunteering at the zoo. As I spoke with visitors about my favorite zoo family, the siamang gibbons, it occurred to me that they are black - aha! No photo doctoring required. Luckily I had my phone and got a couple of quick pictures of them playing.

The next word for the photo challenge, "Sleepy", was easy when I spotted a binturong snoozing on a log later that same day. Binturongs smell like buttered popcorn, by the way.
