    I brought Daniel, my 10 years old son, to photograph ducks this afternoon. He was using my old equipment: D70S and a Sigma 70-300 with external focus motor. I did set-up the camera is shutter priority at 1/1000s and ISO 400. We played with birds on the ground then at the end I threw a few pieces of bread up in the air. As the ducks flew in from all directions, Daniel just had a blast. Here are the results. I did have to adjust by +1.3 stop, Noiseninja, and remove some background elements in the lower right corner and a catch light since he could not synchronize a flash at that speed. Great end of the day light. Lots of family fun! Ordinary birds, special moment.

    A brilliant way to introduce your lad into photography. I had similar experiences with my father when I was growing up but into motorsports photography instead of nature/wildlife. Sadly none of my lads have any tendency towards photography at all!! In good time Daniel will be a great shooter from the result you have shown.
