William's First Photo...

Good Monday Morning! We ended up going to the zoo Sunday instead of Saturday. William (Our 12 yr old grandson) was just lounging around the house so Gampa and I scooped him up on our way to town. Naturally, we had to eat at one of our favorite restaurants, Ninfa's. A body needs fuel after all!Lolol... We then headed off to the local zoo. Will has taken a few photos before but this time I shoved my Canon Power Shot into his hands and told him to "go for it kiddo..." He took several excellent shots, this being one of them. Nothing more beautiful than an eagle...Anyway...he had to go to the doctor this morning and I did a few edits to the shot and put his name on it then called Crystal and told her to show him what HE had done! I had posted it on FB. He loved it! Especially upon seeing HIS name on it. I think he may have "the eye". Photography is Fun!
Well, guess I'll finish my sandwich and get something productive done...Hope you are all safe from all those horrible storms! SO sad!!!

Kids are generally freer than adults and it shows in their photography.
Great shot! :))

That's beautiful. You have a photographer on your hands. Haven't been to a zoo for years. Guess we have that many animals here we never think it's necessary, lol.

He and thou collaborated well together.

I saw my first bald eagle ever around the corner a few weeks ago. Apparently, they are beginning to come back to the area after being wiped out by DDT so many years ago.

Donna said...

Thanks everyone!! He was SO proud of his photos!
