northern Laos I put my digital SLR camera into the hands of this little boy and used hand signals to try to show him how to take a picture. He pressed and held the shutter button, snapping pictures in quick succession. I could not get him to look through the viewfinder, but one of the men in the village explained to him what to do.
northern Laos And this is the picture he took of his friends. (I wonder how much impact it had on this little boy. I wonder if he will take a special interest in cameras and photography when he grows up).
