Basically one yellow against seven blue - what you see are bibs of kids who DON'T play :-)

Seems a little unfair odds - one blue against seven yellows. Nice find and good control of dof. -tv

Penny, I would like to tell a nice story that I was browsing Singaporeans stories days long to find these yellow & blue bibs and then spend days composing this yellow-blue wonder … but the life is more prosaic. My part in preparing of this brilliant composition is equal Zero, I just shoot what I saw. These bibs belong to soccer club JSSL-Arsenal – Yes, we have our own Arsenal here in Singapore! – whose traditional colors are red/white. When kids play game they use these bibs to differ two teams. So the bibs were just lying there on a crumb rubber running track. So, the red background was also not my choice :-)
Konstantin.

tell us you went out and purchased these for the occasion and didn't just walk into a locker room somewhere to take this. And are there still six guys walking around in just their shorts somewhere? Ha ha ha ha...
I do love the choice (I'm assuming you had one) of the red background.
