"The pictures told me about that day."
As Wataro said, his son took many photos that captured the events of the day. He rode in the car, played with toy trains, and so on.
They may be ordinary scenes of daily life, but you can tell that the photographer is enjoying taking these pictures without restraint. They reflect a small child's unique perspective while also perhaps hinting at the budding talent of a future photographer.
The posted photos elicited many comments such as:
Kids can sometimes surprise adults with their freedom of spirit and their perspective.
Pictures of everyday life taken out of pure interest have a different kind of appeal than those taken by a professional.
