It has been too long since I had time to blog. We went on vacation to Tybee Island, Georgia. It is a great place just outside of Savannah. Today there will be lots of pictures taken by our four year old granddaughter Johnnie Lynn. I gave her my camera several times during vacation and told her to take pictures of anything she wanted. I did my best not to suggest anything because I wanted to see our vacation from her perspective.
This is Johnnie's self shot. Pretty good job for a 4 year old. I wanted you to meet our photographer.
This is Johnnie's dad, John. She did pretty well here.
Your blogger.
What a pair.
This is what happens when you are short. Pointing the camera straight ahead gets you a lot of these shots. Johnnie has pretty good skills and has only taken a few like this.
When you are short you spend lots of time looking up so sometimes you take pictures of the sky. Sure is bright when you look up from down there.
Since you don't get to lead the pack you spend lots of time looking at other people's backs.
For some reason she decided we needed a picture of these trash containers.
On the same walk around Tybee Island she took a picture of these flowers. I guess to show us both sides of life on the island.
She was trying to get a candid shot of me but got mostly fingers on the first attempt.
A successful second attempt.
She stopped us on the sidewalk in Savannah to take this one.
Another Savannah shot. Again not leader of the pack so she sees lots of backs.
This was at The Crab Shack. Papa being silly.
Johnnie got us lined up for a group photo. She told us to move closer together and when she got us in position for the shot got us to smile by saying: "Say boobies!"
Johnnies view in the car is the back of Nana's seat or a look at her feet. No wonder kids are always falling asleep in the car.
She decided that taking pictures of trucks on the interstate would be a good use of her time and camera skills. She had a little trouble figuring out that you can take a picture while the car and truck are both moving. We would be along side and she wouldn't push the button because the truck wouldn't stop.
So that is vacation from Johnnie's perspective. It does make you appreciate the plight of the short. Always looking up at the sky to look you in the face or straight ahead and seeing a world full of asses. Look up Johnnie, please always look up.
Nice to have you back. I think Johnnie did a pretty good job, and perhaps she is well on her way to a lifetime of shutter bugging. Everyone looks relaxed and well. And when in doubt, "Say boobies"!
