Default I Hate 500 PX

Just when I thought my toddler is pretty nifty with my Canon 30D, the iPhone and her Nikon Coolpix.......

Just when I thought I was getting better with my photos and feeling good.......

I look at 500px and I get smacked with reality.

Now I'm going to have to get a darkroom, learn how to use it, and then teach my kid before she turns 4 next year how to develop her own film!!

Damn it!

I've seen that photo of the boy photographer a few times on the net - it's no wonder why.

Is it wrong that I am deeply jealous of that purty Hassie?
That kid's going places!

Oh John, don't think that thought hadn't crossed our minds She actually loves goal keeping and for the life of us, we don't know where she learned it from. But she loves it and screams goooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaallllll like a Brazillian!

However, she's going to be one of those models, apparently, given that she is going to be tall. So off to modelling she goes by the time she's twelve (she is my retirement fund after all ) and race car driving school.

She really likes photography, though.......I hope it stays with her.....
