| Parliament House Canberra, beyond Old Parliament House, as taken from the War Memorial |
Master J (17) was away most this week on a fast-paced school excursion to Sydney and Canberra. I gave him my pocket Canon IXUS to take with him, in case he wanted to take any photos. He very rarely takes any photos so I half expected he wouldn't use it.

When he returned late this week I was very pleasantly surprised. Not only had he used the camera but he had captured many great photos to share with our family. I feel like he had given me a wonderful gift. While I was capturing only our little backyard and busy house painting, he was careful choosing and snapping pieces of his trip for all to enjoy.

Your son has a great eye for subject and composition - this is a great collection and brought back many happy memories of my job transfer there for 6 months back in the '60s ! The view from Anzac Parade was immediately identifiable from the thumbnail - Thanks for sharing.
He did a great job! Takes after his mum.
His pictures tell a story like yours. Thanks.
I really enjoyed this little tour.. Looks like your son takes after your with these fabulous photos..

He has done a great job...fabulous photos. He has a great eye for visual story telling.
Master J has taken some wonderful images. I think he shares your gift for composition & photos that tell a story. Well done! What a great excursion in his first year of school.
He did an excellent job!
You have been on some wonderful adventures with your family. Thanks for sharing.
Master J really did capture some great shots... I love the perspective ones! He already has his own style!
great images - we visited Canberra for the first time in January - the Australian War Memorial was amazing. We spent over a day there, and found names of family on the remembrance wall.
Thank you for stopping by my blog and for your comments about the wildflowers - yes they are stunning aren't they - so privileged to be able to travel, see and photograph them.
Have a wonderful week.
Great job! I love the second one, it's very well captured. Thanks for sharing :)
