Fashion's been on our minds this week, what with the whole Rock Stars of Science thing rolling out yesterday, so this week we have SteelyKid modeling the latest in toddler headgear:
This was the culmination of a game that started with her putting her napkin on her head, and declaring it a hat. We moved on to me having to wear a towel on my head, and then her getting the towel. I really like the way this one turned out.
Of course, it wouldn't be Toddler Blogging without Appa for scale:
Here, we have SteelyKid kicking back with Appa and, um, a can of tomato paste that she found in the kitchen. I'm not sure why, but she insisted.
I continue to fiddle around with camera lenses and settings, so we also have a with-flash version of this basic picture:
Something between these two extremes would probably be best-- a more diffuse flash, or an indirect flash. Which suggests what's going on my Christmas list...
Aaron Cass in CS will often play a game "Is it a hat?" which involves getting people to define "hat" and then repeatedly breaking the definition...
it usually ends with "Yes, fine anything you put on your head is a hat. Please stop now."
