The above title is in quotes because our little friend Elwood first used this name in lieu of "photographer".
I, on the other hand, have met a camera taker in the literal sense. While sitting outside saturday in the beautiful sunshine, little "O" asked if he could just take a couple of photos with my camera. "Sure" I said. After 40 minutes I began to wonder if he had gone into the house or what exactly happened to the boy?
Soon I found him still taking photos and discovering his everyday world in a whole new way.
As I was going through the photos I just loved the idea that he experimented with several self-portrait attempts. In this last photo can you find the bird? He discovered camoflage in it's truest sense and felt he was carrying a very important secret.
I loved looking at his photos and learning about discovery in a whole new way. I always considered myself capturing our memories but it wasn't until new eyes took over the lens that I've realized it's also about discovering everything around us.
