As the founder and president of AAOF (American Association of Old Farts) I take advantage of certain privileges such as sitting in a folding chair on the sidelines when we go to watch any of our granddaughters play soccer.
We have six granddaughters and all of them are soccer players now. Livvy (on the left) and Maddy (on the right) just started their soccer career a few weeks ago and they love it.
I had a roll of Kodak Ektar color print film in my Nikon F3HP and my 75-150mm zoom lens mounted so I could get close without getting out of my seat. A bonus that comes with the seat — I don’t have to get down on my creaky knees to take photos of the kids (you need to get down to their level for decent photos).
I’m not giving up on B&W but I do have to inject some color every now and then. Hope you like it.
A family that plays soccer together, plays well together?
Lovely colour shot.
Yes, it’s nice when the tools help to overcome the limitations of the body. Creaky knees indeed, my crack loudly when rising from a kneeling position.
There’s Grandpa, pointing his camera again!
A decent photo, indeed! I’m thankful for the tools which made it possible without causing too much strain.
Blessings!
AAOF… I love it…. Beautiful children’s John..
