(note: I believe all of these are from Isadore:)

the kid lens: 1

i have decided to start a new series on the blog called the kid lens. why? because everytime i download my camera, there are mysteriously a bunch of blurry, oddly cropped photos taken from a 3-to-4-foot-from-the-ground angle. those of you with kids, i am sure have the same phenomenon.

this is the first of what i am sure will be many installments. each series will be from one average weekly download. most are taken without my knowledge, so they are all from the eyes of mayan or isadore, and have little to no adult influence. i should have started this a long, long time ago.

so without further ado, i bring you the kid lens: 1....
