Watch out Annie...

 Aubrey with her Mom's Nikon D90...

What a surprise...It was the annual Cerda picnic at Yorba Park and it happens to be my Mom's birthday, Happy 78th Birthday!!!!...but what a surprise when Aubrey picked up Niki's camera and was getting great shots with everything in the frame...She was even directing everyone and asking them to "smile"...


I'll have lots of pictures later in the week...and as always... remember to encourage each other and everyone you deal with...


By the way...Annie is Annie Leibovitz...the greatest American female photographer...
