It hasn’t been a good 24 hours for the eldest of the Beckham children. Since the release of his debut photography collection ‘What I See’ yesterday, Brooklyn has been panned across social media for his pictures.
The book is published by Penguin Random House and comprises of the 18-year old’s photographs complete with captions.
One photo of an elephant completely covered in shadow with the caption ‘so hard to photograph but incredible to see’ has attracted much of the p*ss taking.

This Twitter user turned the captions into a poem-
I've turned the captions from Brooklyn Beckham's photographs into a poem about the emptiness of wealth and celebrity. pic.twitter.com/4rYEYY8oTi

The one time model recently said he was much more comfortable behind the camera rather than in front of it insisting “I’m a photographer, not a model.”
His publisher was forced to release a statement addressing the criticism.
"What I See is a book for teenagers, by a teenager, which gives Brooklyn's fans broader insight into his world seen through his unique and creative perspective. We are proud to bring these images together in a book for a young generation for the first time," said Francesca Dow, managing director of Penguin Random House.
