Today, I drove down south to Columbus GA to shoot a corporate volunteer event.  The day’s plans were  to document the activity and success of  volunteers working with a local non profit.  Unfortunately, the day did not go as planned;  just as we were getting ready to start, the sky opened up and it felt like 2 inches of rain dropped upon us in an instant.  Half of the days plans were gone in an moments time.

But even with that, a lot was done and a lot of success was had (with some fun of course).

Just as I was getting ready to wrap up, I was walking around to make sure I captured some of the little things, when all of a sudden two girls yelled at me from outside the fence.  They wanted to know what I was doing and why was I taking pictures.  They were not part of the event, just some kids passing by.  Before I could even answer, they asked if I would take their picture.  Who am I to say no to that! Thankfully, I had my 14-24 lens on my camera and I could pull this off.

I stood up on my toes, put my hands (and camera) through the barbwire and pointed it down. There was no way I could look through the viewfinder.  I just clicked  the shutter, Luck must have been on my side as I think this ended up being my favorite shot of the day.  I know that it doesn’t fit my purpose of the day, but for me personally I love everything about it. The smiles on the girls faces, the way the boys line up behind them.
