How I learned to see

A long time ago in a small dusty town far far away, a young lad came upon a camera. Not just any camera mind you, it was a teeny tiny plastic camera which used 110 film for teeny tiny negatives.

Feeling almost like James Bond with his most modern micro camera, this young lad set out to record important things, capture moments in time to preserve them for posterity, and better mankind by making it stare deeply into its own eyes.

Yes, he was going to take pictures of girls.

For with his camera in hand this young lad had discovered something magical. Girls that had never looked his way before would now stop, pose, and most precious of all, smile at him.
