Not as easy as it used to be

I think it has been quite sometime since the last time I share some photos of my son. Mostly because it was rainy season, and whenever I go out I didn't bring any camera with me. And also he is now on daycare, so the time he is at home, and play in the alleyway is not as much as it used to be.

The other thing is that, taking photo of him at this age as he grow older and more active is not as easy as it used to be.

Before, I still have more time to use my slow autofocus lens to take as many photo as I want, and most of them will be in good focus because he didn't moved much.

Now its different, I need to time his movement nicely so that I could get the sharp photo, and most of my shots now are out of focus as he moves quite fast so that my lens auto focus could not handle it well. (I think my skill played part as well in this failure)

And his expression is predictable as it used to be, when he mostly will smile, now he gives me a lot of other expression, and also he already has something on his mind, that might not be well suited with my photo needs.

The hat in this photo as the example, he wanted to use it, but it would be much better if he took it away, because the light was not the nice that day. But what can I say if he wanted to use it.

Now look at this expression that he gave me. He looked like he was so upset, and wanted to cry, but a few second after I took the photo, he run to me and want to see the review in my camera. That was so funny, somethin that I will remember, but also not a good one in a kind of photoshoot that I want.

"what should I do next?" he might think.

Just show a smile 😄

Now what we have here in the sewage area?

Time to go!!

Maybe just intentionally crashing the bike into the pole, and pose a little bit.
