Lots of non cricket fans out their i guess...the guy in foreground is one of two umpires used in cricket and he is standing in a position known as square leg (no,not his stance lol ) hence he is the square leg umpire...phew !
Lol! Nice shot with the action in the background. (perhaps the entire cricket bat in shot would have bee better?) Of course you are male ....this is a CRICKET shot!! lol! And I have learnt something new . Viv
Thanks Viv..your right about the bat though.'There is no point pressing the shutter unless you are making some caustic comment on the incongruities of life. That is what photography is all about. It is the only reason for doing it.'......Philip Jones Griffiths
Love this, Jogi, but then I'm a cricket tragic, and this is so evocative of a village cricket match - hope it's not a stupid 20/20 game ... mutter, mutter. Janhttp://janpudney.net/ http://jaypea.redbubble.com/
Yes it was a 20 over game but it was betwween two island sides of the Isles of Scilly ,so with travelling time ,matchtime is restricted. Currentlky enthralled with test match against S.Africa at the moment, real cricket at last !! Thanks for comments.'There is no point pressing the shutter unless you are making some caustic comment on the incongruities of life. That is what photography is all about.

Looks like Fred has come back with a vengeance - just going to sign on to the BBC for better half so that he can keep up with the latest scores ... Janhttp://janpudney.net/ http://jaypea.redbubble.com/
