Gathering of Family... And Pants.

Family Month is winding down, but there's still enough room for this compact, family unit.

Allies: Promoting the Crouch With Synergy.

This is a pack of workplace crouchers becoming a little more allied with the environment. One must look all the way back to Da Vinci's "Last Supper" to locate such flawless, aesthetic subject placement. If the Fed-Ex guy had happened to walk out of the elevator into this lobby at this exact moment, he would have wept. Then he would have gone straight home to hug his wife and kids and tell them he loved them in Italian. (Side Note: Take a look at the crouch archives, the last sentence of the 2nd post on March 26th for some true irony, a valuable lesson, and perhaps some wizardly clairvoyance.)

Just Makin' Room.

Crouching isn't always about about attitude and sweet style. Sometimes it's merely about necessity, makin' room in a photograph packed with too much friendship. That brings us to subjects A and B at the bottom left of this snapshot. Takin' one for the team, this pair's clever spatial relations brainstorming saved an almost lost photograph when they sacrificed the comfort of their own knee joints for the sake of a 10-friend smile fest.

Women Be Crouchin'

A rare, all lady crouch. Perfect, except for the standing guy. Come on dude. Get low or get lost. The good news is these girls are kickin' off their game night with a B.F.F. quad-crouch for the ages. They went on to consume unhealthy amounts of Dr. Pepper and play Yahtzee till sunrise.

Thumbs Up, The Rest Down.

We kick off friends and family month with a submission from this pack of best buds. Nothing like a thumbs up and an arm cross to really accentuate a posse crouch at a college fair. Now go reward yourselves with either some chicken in a pita, or some chicken fingers.

The Disdainful Freshman

This data processing major just came from an exam that he knows he aced. He doesn't even want to talk about it. He finds the nearest Corinthian pillar on campus, programs his digital camera, quickly slicks back the blonde part of his hair and gets in position. Now he's off do his dorm where a cold, six pack of zimas awaits. First he'll finish bleaching his hair before a 4 hour session of World of Warcraft ensues, all to the rousing sounds of Static X's entire discography.

The Goods: Live Hard, Crouch Hard.

This is Pete. He's a car salesmen. That's the dealership. It's tall. But nothing's too tall for this ace. This was right after he sold a Hummer to a vegan. In the midst of his celebration he pulled off this revolutionary crouch. Sometimes you gotta go high to really get low.

Scrub-Down

Hospitality never looked so awesome. The comfort of these multi-colored scrubs leaves plenty of room for all the serious bending and dipping needed to really huddle up and make important life-saving decisions.

Going International Chapter 4: Ukraine in the Membrane

A World War II themed crouch sent in from the WWII Museum in Kyiv, Ukraine.

Craig's List Crouch

What better way to sell your old entertainment center on the internet? If you said "not be in the picture at all" you're dead wrong. If you said "open the venetian blinds, clasp the hands, get low, really give the ad a personal touch, give buyers an objectively comparative, and accurate size/scale perspective, all while adding an undeniably confidant and suave vibe that is sure to drive the value of the otherwise average shelving unit sky high" then you would be absolutely correct. Oh yeah, he listed this as free. He ended up getting $12,000 and a key to the city.

Race to Crouch Fountain

Just a casual trip to the zoo? I think not. This knee-bending optimist sees the fountain half full by lowering his line of sight and becoming half as tall. He went on to enjoy the zoo more than he ever has before.

4th of July Fire-Crouch 2 of 2.

Patriotism and Danger-2 things we love and embrace here at Crouchpics.com. Good form, better camaraderie. And how about the dude on the left, crouching on top of his wheel chair. How's that for a metaphor for the healing power of the crouch.

4th of July Fire-Crouch 1 of 2.

The founding fathers would have been proud. I believe our subject knows this in his heart, as it is so proudly expressed in a genuine smile. That grin is almost as warm as the very sparklers in his patriotic hands. God bless America.

Danza the Manza

Why was there ever any question who the boss was? Mystery solved.

Groom in a Wagon

Confused? Yeah, us too. Upon seeing this picture, only a series of questions seems appropriate: Was this the photographers idea? Were the groomsmen playing a practical joke by suggesting this? Will this make it into the wedding picture photo album? What were they even doing in a barn? Is there some kind of inside joke? "Oh that crazy Percy, he's always crouchin' in a wagon." If this wasn't the groomsmen's idea, who is this photographer and how is he so damn persuasive? Is he a hypnotist? And where do I find the rest of his work?

Back To Basics Part 2.

Every once and a while, we at crouchpics have to dig deep and get back to our roots. And there really is no better standard than a group of men in suits. We are talking fundamentals here. These guys are headed to their prom, and while their dates await, there will be no closer bond on this night than this moment at the park across the street, except maybe the bond of every pair of hands clasped together. True form. Applause.

Low-Bama

Crouch of the Month Recipient

Here it is Fans, you asked for it. Introducing the first crouch chosen by the people in a true democratic matter, much like the subject himself: our president, Barack Obama. He took the first poll in a landslide victory, leaving Michael J. Fox and Chuck Norris in the dust like McCain and Nadar. This photograph was taken while Mr. President was studying our current economic state. He had to get low enough to really understand it.

Going International Chapter 3: Finnish Hymn

This is Juho, a real life Finn who was kind enough to help us write chapter 3 of "Going International." Finland is known for housing tall men, but on this particular day, height was sacrificed for sleek style.

Jurassic Crouch 2: The Lost Crouch

A familiar face, and an even more familiar form. The only thing unfamiliar about this snapshot is the rugged, potentially dinosaur-filled territory. He has nimbly crouched horizontally, gotten low with a handlebar stash, and now he returns in this gorgeous yet dangerous senior picture in the midst of the lurking t-rex's lair.

Mountain Croucher.

This fan discovered a prime, scenic overlook and took care of business. He spreads his arms wide as if to say: One day this will all be mine. Keep up the strong crouching my friend and you can conquer all the land that weak people will allow.
