Kid brag. My daughter's a camera whiz.
My three (ok- ALMOST four) year old took this picture a few minutes ago. It's black and white and grainy because something is very wrong with my camera, but I think she did a REALLY good job. I let her walk around and take pictures with my camera and she's getting extremely good at it! She's also got an excellently positioned photo of my carpet steamer. :rofl: I think I'm going to start an album for her with all the best pictures she takes. She's so cool!

4. Thanks! She seems to really understand positioning well.
She mostly photographs objects, I was impressed she could do so well with a human subject.

2. Good for her!
AND......good for you! By letting her play around now, you are encouraging her to learn how to take pictures.....

Some fine day, she will have something to be proud of......

And it will be because you encouraged her!

The creative spark has been ignited!

Nice pic, BTW.....


:loveya: :hug:

5. Thanks! I think she may be my "artistic" child.
She loves to draw as well, whereas my boys aren't quite so enamored with it.

3. my 5 year old LOVES to take pictures
it took a good year or so for her to stop taking pics that included the tips of her own fingers. It's funny what kids try to capture...the vacuum, the door, a wall, etc. :D

Looks like your daughter has a good eye!

6. I'm thinking I should replace my camera and let her have the old one.
It's not quite working entirely, but it would be sufficient for her purposes (and it was a cheap camera, anyway.)
