Charlie was actually just reaching for the lens. He loves the camera. But it kind of reminded of me of those stars who decline the photo opportunity....

Cool when you can buy veg that are bigger than your kids. Charlie is more talkative than the radish.

My wife and my youngest son recently got back from three weeks in the UK. Apart from being pretty busy while the wife was away, I had a few busy weeks of work too. Juggling freelance life with being full-time dad, laundry, cook etc has been a lot of fun but hard work.
There were a few days when the kids drove me mad. One day last week in particular Joe and Ami were arguing like mad so I just finished what work I had to do at home, phoned the rental car place and we disappeared out of town for the whole day.
Turned out to be a great day to go to Kamakura beach as even the guy who runs one of the bars at the beach's north end said that he hadn't seen a prettier sunset in a long time.
Here's a few shots from the day. A few of the kids and a couple of the surfers and paddle boarders with the sunset and Mt. Fuji....
Gear?
Nikon D700 with either the 80-200mm f/2.8 or the 300mm f/4

Joe came out with us on the workshop last weekend and took some shots as well. Got him to pose for me in a little coffee-break we had by some nice momiji trees.
