Thomas Hawk, watch out…

Milan Scoble

Hey, Thomas, there’s a 13-year-old kid running around who machine guns a Canon 5D just like you. Here’s his first and best photos (more Milan photos there). I think Patrick has quite an eye. Can’t wait for him to go on a Photowalking. Damn that camera is awesome. We’ve shot 1,500 images in three days. I’ll upload mine soon.

  1. Giving a child a camera is giving him a way to remember his own childhood in his own way, rather than in the birthdays-and-weddings only way.

    With today’s amazing technologies, taking and sharing pictures has become so much easier – that’s something Patrick may be taking for granted, but that I’m sure he’ll appreciate in another 13 years.

    I’m sure Milan will also enjoy this when he’s older. :)

    To Patrick: I’ve added you to my Flickr contacts, I love your photos.

    Hi Robert -

    Great photos. Milan looks very serene.

    I swear there is something about having a newborn in the room which makes everybody a better photographer!

    I managed to capture this amazing shot when my son was born in April this year:

    Good luck with the next few weeks. I hope it all goes well for you and your family.

    @Vero Thanks I had a lot of fun taking them. I probably do take all these great things we have today for granted now.

  9. [...] Scoble is weer vader geworden, en zoals het een a-list blogger betaamt deelt hij dit met zijn lezers. Hij deed dit eerder ook al via twitter en flickr! Ook laat je dan even weten wat de afmetingen [...]

    You know what else? Besides being a very good photog, Patrick’s also a very clever headline writer. Those photo captions are excellent. Nature and nurture combined here…Patrick has talent…so does dad.

    When I got my cam (thanks in part to Scoble), it changed my life. I have 20 thousand photos, amazing memories of my school which I’m goanna leave in 6 months, my Aunt who died 3 months ago, that camp which told me how fortunate I was, and loads and loads of things…

    It can get a bit overboard too: I was once tossed about after I was caught by the invigilator looking at the person in front of me in different angles to try think how different DOF settings would affect that image, and how I should go about framing it :D It can affect your brain in the same way coding does, and in a far more visual way…

    And Patrick: Have Fun! I’m officially Jealous(tm), btw.

  20. Congrats! Milan’s a beauty. Heather’s parents use to live in Milan, Tennessee. I know that has no particular relevance, but I thought I’d share it.

    Cheers,
