Photophobia

When I bought my Canon I was determined to keep track of Zaqwan growing up on a weekly basis, or monthly at the very least, knowing how fast kids grow and the behavioral changes that come with it. I have not been able to do that with Irfan as I don't see him often enough. Besides, Irfan's mama had already chronicled his development on an almost daily basis since his birth, in her blog, so I can always go back to that.

Zaqwan has been ok with the camera as you may have noticed from earlier photoshoots. But this has changed lately.

He seems to be extremely camera shy. He resents the camera being pointed at him and would make his displeasure quite clear for everyone to see.

One evening at break fast (as opposed to one morning at breakfast), he sat on his baby chair at the dining table with us. While waiting for his food to be served he put his right hand to his chin in a termenung  (deep thought) pose, but with a smile on his face.

On seeing this Grandma got excited and went: " the camera! the camera! quickly!"

By the time I came down with the camera Zaqwan's deep and pleasant thoughts had changed to - how to describe it - bored and lazy thoughts may be . And he didn't like the presence of the camera at all:













OK that's enough!

Well, he is still cute. And this is another phase of his personality you now have documented.

Thanks PJ! Except for this he is as adorable if a bit more assertive, shall I say.

Hope you are keeping well
