I like the unusual viewpoints and perspectives a lot.

Where's the one overlooking the glasshouses from above taken from?

I have to say that your 9 yr old has a fantastic eye for composition in my opinion and definitely puts any of my photographic skills to shame. You must be so proud of him.

And rightly so! He did really well.

I can't decide which is my favourite:- the snowdrops of the unusual tree.

Don't you think it's great that "in this day and age" as they say, when adults are constantly complaining about "kids today" wasting their time and generally being "up to no good" that you have a creative child who is showing an interest in something productive. The real beauty of this is that the results of his creativity are there for us to see, and without the formal training and adherence to rules of thirds etc, he has captured some very interesting and attractive pictures.

If he ever needs encouragement, just let him read these posts - there are no negative comments on here, and rightly so.

Give him a huge pat on the back - although I am sure you have already done that.

Children deserve praise when they do something wonderful, and this is wonderful.
