Nice story/thread, Tyll.
Today I went to go shoot pictures at an autocross (a timed racing event held in a parking lot with a course marked by cones.) Xavier wanted to go with me, and for only the second time in a while wanted to take his dSLR out for a spin, so we spent about 5 hours shooting and hanging out. That made me smile. A buddy came up and asked him if I was his assistant today. I thought about it, and I was carrying the heavy camera, the camera bag, and changing lenses for him. Heh, my buddy was right.
He probably DID take better pictures than me.
Xavier's set (he's 6, btw).
My set (I'm 5x older, currently).
Last week, he and I went to Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey circus. Editing those pics later this week. Had a blast there too!
