Childhood photography

I love photography. It is so great to see young people get excited about this artistic medium. My son is a very good photographer and has taken some beautiful photos (including the one shown to the left)—first with his mom's camera or mine, and more recently with the digital camera we gave him last year. He has a great eye and loves to experiment with shutter speeds, f/ stops, and zoom ranges to affect the depth of field, contrast, and other such things. It's fun to watch him grow in his understanding of light and photographic reproduction.

Along those lines, pop over to Antique Mommy - Fabulous Photo Contest to read the interview of the 10-year old girl who took the photo shown here. (She was just 9 at the time of the photo. Then take the time to offer your suggestion for the name of the photo. What a talented and bright young lady. And what an outstanding photo.
