Cricket is one of the most popular sports in Sri Lanka. Boys and young men take every opportunity to practice the game they love from dawn until dusk.
Boosa Beach, Sri Lanka.
As odd as it sounds this is a picture I tried my hardest not to take. While watching the beautiful sunset on Boosa beach in Sri Lanka I made a conscious decision to push my DSLR camera out of reach to be present in the moment and soak in my surroundings with my wonderful partner Jo. The composition however was developing in front our eyes, Sri Lanka’s strong association with cricket partnered with it’s well known stunning beaches. Itching to take the photo but committed to sharing the moment it wasn’t until Jo said “that’s an incredible image…why are you not taking the picture?” that I ran off to beat the sunset to compose the photograph. Sometimes there are moments that just need to be captured! Thank you Jo!
