Taken by my son Sam.
No adjustments at all, just re-sized jpeg's straight from the camera, what chance do I have? :D

If you're interested, you can see some more of his work here.

Mark, I recently purchased a D70 at a fair price to let me 10 and 8 yr olds play. They come up with some interesting stuff at times..

A different perspective..

He's got talent that one. He handles a Bronica pretty well, too.

Yes, quite impressive that. I always wondered whether a PHD DSLR might be better for kids than a proper P&S. I reckon it's harder to drop/lose and less prone to fingers in front of lens or flash. I might have a look around for my 11 y.o. while I'm still an eBay member...

Which one, the Canon or the Fuji? ;)

You and Peta should be proud of Sam - he's done well with these. #2 and #3 grab me the most. #1 is a little too busy and I find the out of focus foreground a bit distracting, but getting a cat to sit still is an achievement in itself. #3 shows especially good use of depth Of field and is my fave here.
