Better than baseball.

The clouds were heavy and grey as I was photographing a non-conference ball game in Pittsfield Friday. I usually carry the 5D Mark II with a 24-70mm and my 1D Mark II with 300mm but that day I left the 5D in the car should it start raining.

I've been looking for "Bonus" pictures a lot lately, pictures I find unrelated too but adjacent my assignment. There was a foul ball and I scanned the crowd and spotted three kids walking behind the bleachers covered head-to-toe in mud.

I followed them for awhile through the viewfinder until they disappeared over a bank and into a creek bottom. I ran back to the car grabbed the 5D and gave pursuit.
