Give a kid a camera

foliage

railing

wave

candy

and he'll take photos. It's so fun to see what catches his eye.

Grandma got him one of these. The image quality is lacking, but I kind of like the grainy, blown out look.

Now I need to go see if I can find the pictures from my first camera, a Brownie, from when I was five years old.

Yes, I love to put cameras in the hands of a kid. Have you ever heard of the Kids with Cameras project in third world countries?

I had a keychain camera when I was a kid - talk about lacking quality, but I loved to take pictures. Our kids are lucky that they don't have to wait so long to have film developed. I started a flickr group over the summer titled "If you give a kid a camera...", a play on the "Give a mouse a cookie" books, and then did nothing with the group. Perhaps it's time to post some photos.

We got Jack one of those for his birthday, and man does he love that thing. The only problem is that he, umm, well, he takes pictures of people in the nude. LOL (At 3 he has no idea that might questionable!)
