Maybe I don't hate the new camera as much as I thought.  This is a tiny crop out of a much larger image taken at quite a distance and otherwise untouched. 

See extra for a pair of red heads.  It was the VIP's birthday outing although he is seven for two more precious days. Sometimes I am guilty of wanting to turn the clock back - I am enjoying his childhood so much.I know I am a dotty old granny, but he really is the most affectionate, enthusiastic and easy natured child. He even let me play with his birthday lego this evening.
