For today's Crappy Camera series - the final day of the series - we are combining crappy camera photos with #sublimesunday. Thanks 
Today's gallery of crappy camera photos is also special for another reason: today absolutely none of the pictures shown were taken by me; instead, they were all taken by my youngest son, Christopher, who is 11 years old. My offering today was to simply run them through post-processing. And to make sure we didn't drown. That's important, too.
We went out to Lum's Pond for some canoeing today. I was able to take two of my boys - the youngest and oldest - and enjoy some time on the water. I paddled. The oldest paddled. The youngest used my crappy camera to take pictures.
I'm actually really impressed with how well the pictures turned out. This camera - a 2 mega-pixel beast - does not have a viewfinder or preview screen worth speaking about, so the boy had to eyeball and guess where to aim the camera. I think he did remarkably well!
I will admit, before colour correction, the pictures are really, really bland, and thats only the fault of the camera. Take this next one, for instance. Right out of the camera, it's pretty bland.
With some simple colour correction, however, the sky really begins to stand out, and the clouds become really sharp.
My oldest makes something of an appearance in this next photo. We see part of the back of his head.
Honestly, there are only so many pictures one can take from the middle of a lake in a canoe. There are a number of herons and turtles around, and we hunted, but today came up short, so our only real photo opportunity was the lake itself. At least it's a nice lake!
It was a nice summer day. Unfortunately I had chores waiting for me back home, but it's always fun to be able to get out and enjoy at least part of the day with the kids.
