No, I'm talking about when he grabbed the camera and pushed the button 
while the lens was pointing to the floor.  A totally worthless, unfocused 
print of absolutely nothing but some carpeting & tile.  Were my son to 
"die tomorrow" (again, heaven forbid) I would cherish the picture I have 
of him when I lied down on his level and took one of him smiling with a 
wrench and a battery in his hand.  And the 3D ones of him and I feeding 
the ducks at the marina my wife took with twinned disposables and the ones 
of him and mom at the balloon festival and series of him and I buying and 
eating an icecream treat during the July 4th celebrations, etc...

I don't usually keep "accident" shots where the button was pushed getting 
the camera out of my pocket or out of my wife's purse, etc...

Now, the fingerpainting he did at Mommy's Day Out last week is 
_DEFINITELY_ a work of art and has been hung in our gallery (refrigerator) 
:-) :-)
