Last Christmas Granny and Grandad bought a fab kiddy camera for Jack. Rubber encased with chunky buttons and dials that are perfect for chubby little fingers and with great quality photos it’s ideal for the budding toddler photographer.
Sadly it now languishes unloved in a cupboard.
That’s not to say that the photography bug has not bitten. It has. And hard. It’s just that Jack has decided he would much rather use Mum’s old digital compact. So much smaller and easier to carry around. Plus it’s designed for grown ups and therefore has the allure of the illicit.
Lucky for him Daddy already did a number on it, dropping it on a rock and breaking the zoom, so Mum has moved on to a digital SLR (as well as her trusty camera phone, natch.)
And that’s how we’ve come to have a tiny photographer documenting our every move. Here’s a child’s eye view of last weekend.
- The weekend got off to a great start when the postman brought me a new motorbike. I didn´t realise he liked me so much. Mum said something about it coming from Aunty Sandra but I know it was from the postman. I saw him.
- Motorbike down!!! *brakes squeal, wheels spin*
- My new boat from my big bro. There he is with daddy.
- Annie was on holiday with us. She’s a cute puppy. Mummy says she’s not a puppy and that she´s old but that´s silly because she´s tiny. I wish she could stay forever.
- Another accident. It´s the end of the line for the milk train. Nooooo!
- Mummy ‘catching up on some work’ (on Twitter)
- Mummy wouldn´t let me take the camera to the beach. No problem. I took the beach to the campervan.
- One of my favourite views
- Self-portrait
- This is *one* of my concentrating faces
- And another
- And another….
- My trusty steed
- My favourite photo of the whole weekend. A sweetie. I wish they really were that big.
- Daddy climbing
- Daddy belaying Mummy while I hang out with Miguelín. I told him all about the real sword Mummy´s going to buy me for my birthday, how Daddy´s going to raise the seat on my bicycle and all sorts of interesting things. Mummy says I over-share but coming from a blogger I think that´s a little rich.
So cute!
I think so! But then I am dreadfully biased
So so sweet, and very talented too!
Younger generations are more technology wise ) I still take worse pictures than Espiderman does)
love him!!! very arty shots – he has a photography future!
How sweet! It’s always interesting to see the world from a little person’s point of view. Loved reading this!
This is brilliant….. loved the world from his viewpoint! X
