When Mari, Kenny and I went to a digital photography show back in March, I was handed some toy 110 film cameras.
They're funny little mementos of the film era, not even usable today (110 film is very hard to find). But Kenny likes to pretend that he's taking photos with the things. He'll ask us to do the Japanese thing of holding up two fingers to say "ni" at the camera. Sometimes he holds the camera the right way forward, sometimes he holds it pointing to his nose. Occasionally, it's upside down and he can't even use the "viewfinder". It's fun.
