This is what happens when you arm an 11 year old with a camera and send him on his way. My little brother took all of these while I was teaching swim lessons today. I just thought I'd share what he was able to capture. He has an eye for photography in my opinion. I think when I pull the trigger on a body upgrade, I am going to give him my other body with the kit lenses it came with.

Yep, he did a good job! Definitely potential here. It's nice that you are giving him your old gear when you upgrade !! :)

I guess what makes children so good is that they are not thinking about it. They are just doing it.

I also believe childhood is when you have the most creativity and inspiration simply because you perceive everything so differently. Such things are also evident among the considered 'Great Minds' in this world. Van Gogh, Einstein, Da Vinci, Steven Hawkings aswell. All these minds perceive and thought differently then the 'norm' and are geniuses. They do not have the same influences that everyday person experiences. Kids also don't have the many influences adults have that they have encountered across the years. They can look at the simplicity of things and turn them into beauty. It unfortunate though because only thing that lacks is experience simply because of the limited amount of time in the early developmental stages . I think the mind is most powerful as a youth but since there are so many things undiscovered it is hard to also put it to use with out certain concepts and understandings.

Hes defiantly got talent, a natural eye. # 3 is my favourite. :)
