I WAS INVITED TO THIS FINALS MATCH (Pardon me, cricket players if there is another name for the event! 🙂  )  My cricket terminology is not the best.  Anyway this boy seemed to enjoy this opportunity.  Here are some shots of him in action, or waiting for action.
THIS YOUNG BOY, WHO LIKELY LIVES IN THE BIHARI CAMP NEAR TOWN HALL IS A LIKEABLE BOY!
He must spend a lot of time at the playing field where our football tournament is being held. Â He was playing with a spinning top toy one evening, so I sent him to buy me one. I gave him 20 tk, since he said it would cost 8 tk. Â He came back later with the top. Â It looked like a used one with a new string used to make it spin. Â I told him to keep the change. Later he showed up with a small pack of fried potato chips and shared them with me. Â They would have cost him 5 tk.
We did win our semi-finals game 2-0, but I thought I would wait till later to post some of the football photos. The first point was on a penalty kick soon after the second half started. Â Later there was a nice combination of passing which outwitted the goalkeeper!

CAMERIST IN ACTION
Camerist is an old term used for the photographer. Â Delmar Penner took this photo in Kumarkhali, Bangladesh. Â This is a photo of myself some villagers enjoying seeing their photo on my camera.
