Just thought I'd post some more of the photos Hayden took on Sunday at RSP. I'm finding it amazing seeing the world through the eyes of a 2.5yr old.

Hayden and Daddy's photography session at Roma St Parklands
Hayden and I took a trip to Roma St Parklands on the train on Sunday. He loves trains, was a good excuse to get out of the house, and have a bit of a scout around RSP to see if there were many insects around for some macro photography opportunities.
This was an unusual fly I found. It's a treehopper mimic fly, a very pregnant one by the looks of it.
And I quite liked the purple velvet texture of the stalk this robberfly was perched on. Was hoping to get a better shot, but there was a brown flash in the field of view, and when I looked up from behind my camera there was a female blue wren licking her lips right next to where he was. Can only assume the predator (robberflies are insectivores) became lunch.
To keep Hayden entertained, I gave him our compact digital camera and taught him how to click the shutter.
I figured he could take thousands of photos, it costs nothing. He absolutely loved it. And these are some of the shots he took. Some not too bad. I honestly had nothing to do with these, he did everything himself. All I did was download them and do some very basic white balance/contrast adjustments. No cropping or anything. Not bad for a 2.5 year old?
