Today, Dearest Son decided
he hates his CoolPix camera, you remember, the one he got at the pawn shop for
$30. ? I took a few photos with it, and it’s fine, actually quite nice, better
than any camera I’ve ever had. I figured he was trying to get too close to his
subjects, so the shots were coming out blurry, but there are times that he just
doesn’t want to hear logic and explanation, he wants to be upset. I offered to
let him borrow my old camera, the Fuji FinePix, for his project, in hopes of
calming him down a bit. He loved it. Since that’s the family camera, I ran it
by Beloved Hubby first, then offered him a straight trade – FinePix for
CoolPix. He was delighted. We both hunted up cords and manuals, and it was
done. And that photo of Luna was taken with my new CoolPix.
Don’t worry. He knows we can
trade back if / when he calms down, but he’s already talking about saving for a
High Definition camera. The one he has his eye on is an $80. Sony. I have no
doubts he can save for the two months it’ll take. When he has his eye locked in
on something, he’s almost as single-minded as his momma !
Then his new monitor came in
today, and he was so happy. Luckily we could swipe the monitor cord from the
PS3, I don’t think we’re going out again in all this rain !
