My 6 year old son just loves taking pictures and since they are digital I let him do it when ever he wants.  He is really creative with his shots sometimes.  I just downloaded his pictures on the computer for him and what he did really cracked me up.  Our dog seems to be his favorite subject matter, that and his trains.  Here is a little sample of his work.

 

Not bad for a 6 year old

 

 

My son made this little stick your face in the hole type drawing, you can't see it but her has a little hat drawn on the top so when you stick your head in the paper it looks like you are wearing the hat. He thought it would really funny if the dog were wearing it.  Luckily she is a good sport.

 

 

Here is my son wearing it.

 

 

 

The poor dog can't even sleep without being photographed.

 

I think for his age he is a pretty talented photographer.

He is adorable (or maybe I shoul say very handsome since he a boy). His pictures are charming and very creative.

There is absolutely nothing better than children and their dogs. You couldn't have a more loyal and wonderful companion for your son than his German Shepherd. Maybe he'll be a photographer of animals when he gets older.

Great photos! The more pictures he takes, the better he will get (not to mention you'll have tons of memories along the way). That is one patient(and beautiful) dog.
