The way it was…. by dide

The way it was….

This is the middle of the day!
We went to watch Jesse and Chad play hockey - the game began and after about 15 minutes, the rain came down again by the bucketful. The lights needed to be on, but the game was then cancelled, as the turf was flooded. At the time the game was called off, the score was 1-1, so we all should've stayed at home in the dry!
Looks like it was miserable re getting wet, but what a great image!

We have had the same here for a week. I hope they like playing hockey in the rain as much as my son liked playing football in the rain!

It's been like that all day here too. Grateful I did not have to watch sport, children all grown up. This captures the day perfectly
April 18th, 2015  
That's a great capture!

@deliad ours are grown up too, but now they've moved out from home, it's one way to see them.

Oh,dear, but, I do like your shot!
April 18th, 2015  
Marvelous in its simplicity.

Brilliant on black

Terrific capture of that rain bucketing down.

Great shot, lovely composition and use of negative space.

Fantastic pic, Reminds me of a few Saturday's I've spent at the hockey field, children don't play any more, I don't miss the cold.

Amazing shot to capture the weather conditions. Well done.

I do like the shot as you can see the rain but what a shame to happen during the game
April 18th, 2015  
So they played in the rain??
April 18th, 2015  
Great shot especially on black! I am hoping for better weather tomorrow as my son has his last Waikato U18 trial at 8am.

@777margo yes they play in the rain, but every now and then the artificial turf gets flooded and the game gets called off. Today was one of those days. It cleared later and we saw our eldest son's game.

@alinz good luck to your son.

My that looks miserable!! I think I would have stayed home!
April 18th, 2015  
Great capture of the lights and rain.

Nice minimalist feel to this shot. Probably echos your empty mood at the time. Love the simple frame too.
April 18th, 2015  
Great shot - really shows how dark, grey and rainy the day was.
April 18th, 2015  
Such an interesting capture...... says I from my dry chair.
