Art editor posts sneak peek at Brooklyn Beckham’s photography book – and the verdict is hilarious
BROOKLYN Beckham has been teasing the world for months with snap shots of his photography book, “what i see” - but just what does the eldest Beckham see?
According to the Arts Editor at The i Newspaper, Brooklyn, 18, doesn't see much.
She has tweeted a sneak peek at some of the pages sparking a hilarious thread on Twitter - and as usual, social media has plenty to say about it.
Alice Jones posted: “Huge fan of Brooklyn Beckham's terrible photographs and even worse captions” and attached two pictures illustrating her point.
Spread over two pages, with a split going through the middle, was an evening meal in a restaurant.

Brooklyn captures a dinner party completely out of focus - you can't see who's there or what's happening. Ironically, he says "you can tell there's lots going on."
The picture is called: “dinner."
One follower posted: “Oh my God I've just found a copy. I have a B in GCSE photography and am f***ing Cartier-Bresson by comparison.”
While another simply added: “I’m dying.”
However it was the elephant the really captured the hearts minds of Twitter.
Brooklyn wrote: “elephants in kenya.
“so hard to photograph but incredible to see.”
And the internet had a field day.
“How is an elephant hard to photograph? They're bloody massive,” asked one critic.
Another wrote: “Ah, the elusive elephant. Large, mostly static animals are truly the most challenging to capture on film.”
A third added: “That elephant is amazing. I've never seen an elephant looking quite so much like an amorphous melting ice cream sundae.”
Someone else suspected: “That elephant's actually a card board cut-out photographed in shadow.”
While one tweeter took us back to a simpler time with this remark: “Photos like this used to come back from Boots with a sticker on saying where you’d gone wrong”
And one eagle-eyed man discovered the truth behind the snap: “I call bulls*** - clearly the silhouette of two seals glued to a tree stump.”
It’s not just wild nights and wildlife for Brooklyn– he also travelled across the Atlantic to 'find religion' in the form of a statue of The Virgin Mary.
As one person pointed out: “But I didn’t find religion, Alice.”
Some did jump to the teen's defence, with someone reasoning: "He's a teenager having fun with a camera, leave him"
While another got in with a pun: "Give him time, he's still developing. #punintended"
If you want to see what Brooklyn sees, it's out 29th June by Penguin Random House UK in hardback, priced £16.99
