After giving it a considerable amount of thought, I have just allowed my son Sam, who is almost 12 to join 365. At the moment he is talking about ideas for photographs non-stop which is really exciting. I am helping him with a little bit of editing (cropping and lighting mainly, but he has had a little go with the clone stamp tool too, which he loved.) Unfortunately he is unsatisfied with my old compact camera which means he has to borrow mine which is a little bit frustrating when I want to use it!
Below is his first picture.
I was wondering whether anybody knows of any other young people who do the project so he can follow them and they can hopefully follow him. I think it would be interesting for him to see the world through other youngsters' eyes.

you should, I'll check back too. The film kids are reducing at the moment, I think maybe the site doesn't satisfy them. On 365 you're either shooting with the latest camera and wowing everyone with the super-pixels and shooting outragously clear pictures of a drip of water hitting a glass of milk at super quality, or you're posting for your own satisfaction and catching up with a few friends. Film will make you happy but it won't get you on the popular page. I'm sure your results will be great, I look forward to seeing them.
@chewyteeth Being popular is over rated. I'm sure the flowers/ insect macros/ and sunsets disagree. I just don't want to settle into that kind of photography. Maybe pursue a few photojournalistic skills, which I think film will bring out more than my DSLR does. In a month, when I'm done with exams, I'm bringing some film mojo to the PP. That is just how I 'roll'. See what I did there? Haha. Look forward to your work. x
I follow Karuna who is 14 - has some lovely pictures so far! @agavegirl13 I also follow a few more younsters - but I don't always think of them as young so I will have to go back and look at their profiles!
I don't see that anyone has mentioned @greekdaniel yet. I'm not sure of his exact age, but he's got some great natural talent and has been on the PP several times.

Rachel is a student of mine (headed to 5th grade) who does the project. He may want to check out her pics.
