What technology is for: a picture of my nephew’s bum

Posted in photo, regular by Sabine on June 17, 2010

My 4 year old nephew can work a remote, a video game console, and the built-in camera on my sister’s laptop. Which he put to good use by taking a picture of his high-up-in-the-air bottom (and another of himself pulling an amazing face) – and requested immediately to have both emailed to me. So I am reading through an email from my sister, unsuspecting, until – bam! – an explanation that he wanted to send me these, and well, there’s a picture of his bum and one of him sticking his tongue out at me.
I nearly spat my apple juice out, I was laughing so hard.
But then I thought: not so fast.

So I turned on my built-in camera on my laptop (which I know how to work too), and took a little picture.
And I emailed it to my sister with the warning ‘if he keeps sending faces, the next one is of me with my finger up my nose.’
I think that scared him straight (much to my disappointment).

PS: as my sister was typing the fateful email with picture of bum included nephew was jumping up and down with excitement. If that’s not adorable I don’t know what is.

PPS: my sister hasn’t told him his bum is now on the internet, because she declared he would not be able to contain himself.
