My 6 yr old + My Old D1X camera

I've been wondering for a while what I should do with my old camera/paper weight and then it hit me when Ayden started asking if he could use Becca's camera. I pulled the old D1X out of the camera bag... dusted it off and put an old lens on it and let him loose. He wanted me to pose for him and I gladly obliged... as you can probably imagine I am ecstatic that he is showing an interest in photography. If you remember our 2007 Christmas card, he took the images of Becca and I for the card.

These images were taken at mid day in our back yard so the lighting isn't the best. Considering this camera weighs about 5 lbs and is pretty big and bulky I think he did a pretty darn good job... what do you think?


Here is a shot of him working the beast! He's even doing a little camera tilt.
