And now we pause for a moment of unabashed sentimentality, so all non-parents should probably just move along.

This is my youngest son, Ben, caught in a typical moment. The reason I wanted to show it is that I just found it on the digital camera compactflash card and have posted it here completely uncropped, unretouched or fiddled with in any way. When I asked who took it, it turns out it was my eldest son - Sam - who is five years old. He tells me he took it because "I made that pirate hat in kindergarten".

All of which proves one of two things - I have a genius photographer for a son, or this SLR digital camera is so simple to use that - errr - even a child can use it.

Anne Geddes ..... be very afraid.
