Indoor Soccer

Went to support my dear friends, Mary and Andy, at their indoor soccer game. They have a blast playing in a YMCA league. My photography friend, Debu, captured the action with me! Here's a collection of some of our favorite shots. Enjoy!

Staying safe

Focus

Mary came and visited us during half time

While we were shooting the game action, one of the youngest Y members kept visiting. Ivan was an absolute doll. I asked his Mom if she minded me taking a photo of him, and she said go for it so I did:) Well as I got a shot of the lil guy, he wanted in on the action. 

Ivan: "Can I take one of you?"
Me: "Ah...  this is an expensive toy. I'll get one of you, but I can't give it to you." [trying to be as polite and amicable as possible]
Ivan: "Come on, I want to take YOU." [feeling his persistence rising...]
Me: "That's not a good idea. This is would be REALLY heavy for you too."
Ivan: "I got it. I'm STRONG." [he stubbornly puts his hands on his hips and gives me the eyebrow and smirk... hence the picture below!]

Friendly competitors... Shaking hands at the end of the game

Great times capturing the fast paced game, while enjoying the wonderful company of my photography friend and lil Y member. Here's to Cherishing the Little with friends and hobbies we enjoy.
