A shot took from last weekend at Academic of Science of San Francisco. The girl is my daughter and the boy stand back is my son with another Boy unknown to me. My kids are used to camera, so they usually ignore me, but certainly not the case with this boy, I notice he stare at me and change the focus to him quickly snap the shot.

Very cute, sad that no one else wants to take part, but I can understand it too. It is a strange thing, being plastered all over the internet with no control.

yeah, i'm not terribly fond of seeing my own mug on the ol' interwebs either. all the shots of my daughter here have a limited lifetime and will disappear as she matures.

My better half insisted that i add a password to my web galleries, as she is reluctant to let pictures of junior out for all to see. I'm not so cynical, so i post here and don't tell her.

I dunno - if he can get a TS-E mounted on a G12 or S100 i think we could class it as "alt".
