My son the photographer

A picture of me playing guitar after work, taken by Yuzo.

We gave my son a point-and-shoot camera. He's been taking some interesting photos around the house.

It seems my son, Yuzo, is a budding photographer. He's just three and a half years old. We gave him an old point-and-shoot camera we had. He's been snapping away for the last few weeks. I finally downloaded the photos to my computer and took a look. There were lots of interesting shots, and I was surprised by his perspective on the world.

He took this photo of me in our kitchen one morning. I think I must seem huge to him. 

It was also fascinating to see what he thinks is interesting. There were lots of close-up photos of strange things around the house, and of his toys and his room.

He even figured out how to take a selfie. He seems very serious and artistic to me, but I am his proud father!

Thanks for your comment, Taichi. He really makes every day happy and bright. I thought exactly the same thing when I saw his picture. It's very interesting to see the world from his point of view.
