Folks here at the office get all giddy at the sight of a camera. What can I say? We're typical Pinoys. Point a camera at us and we'll go berserk showing our best smiles.
Such is the case this lunch period. M brought her new camera to the office to show off. Of course, being a poseur, BB always had a steady smile and would ask me constantly to take a picture of him with the new cam. Such is also the case with any other person who saw us (M and myself) with the camera at hand. They would ask us to take pictures of them. Pictures always turn out funny because people never seem to take digital cameras seriously. Smiles are often crooked and weird faces abundant. Just because we know that we could always delete anything that didn't look too well. :)
My favorite subject these days, I, is only 1 1/2 years old and he already knows what's the advantage of a digicam. Everytime I take a picture of him with the digicam, he would smile his best and after the shot would go next to me and ask me to show him his picture already. Instant gratification for the kid. Whenever a picture of him is taken with a film based camera, he would ask to see the back of it just so he could see if his picture was already there.
Instant gratification.
