The grandson Robbie came to work with his dad and I this afternoon after school and was bored and being underfoot. I gave him a 10 lb (4Kg) hammer, and told him he could go beat up the junk pile. It worked, he was noisy, but no trouble at all after that. Note the seed and leaves thrown up by the blow.
Zoom at 165mm, polarizer. cropped to about 1/4 of the orij frame, no other pp.

So instead of getting him out of your hair so you could get some work done, he ended up getting you to spend all day taking photos of him. Sounds very familiar! :)

Great shot to keep for another dozen years and then frame and give it to him. Very nice.

When the boys are bored here we do the same thing. Give them a sledge hammer, some stuff to break up and they are happy! Not to mention worn out after swinging that hammer around!
