Tonight I went to watch my son’s game, they are in districts and have won the first three games. Tonight we played in a town about a half hours drive. It’s a bit of a fun journey on route 79 and the towns are very Mayberry RFD like, with no internet service…How do they live?

We were in a town called Elsberry and the lights were on, the team was doing great, when I noticed off in center field, a very distinct, brown cloud. I thought for sure it was a dust cloud.

The ump motioned to me and said “make sure you get that” I thought.. Uhhh sure, and ignored his request…but after a few moments the dust cloud did not go away but got bigger and bigger and it moved, in amazing shapes and patterns.

I started to click and then asked…WHAT is that? the Ump responded “mosquitos” Are you kidding me? and he said, if we don’t finish this game soon, they will move from light to light and be upon us before we know it.

He was not kidding, I ran out to get some closer shots and thanked God I had my 70-200 on, but was wishing for the 400! Tomorrow I’ll post up some shots of the game, these shots are unedited, I wanted to get them up because I teased everyone that I had some amazing shots…

Now you all see why I had to take a shower first…

Oh and the last picture, my son said and I agree “That’s niche marketing at it’s best”
