Kicking Game On Border

We all have a kid inside ourselves alive I saw a bit of that amongst the Cambodians near the border immigration building my last hours in Cambodia. When I got to the border I watched 8 or so men playing a kicking game, there were local men working the area along with 3 immigration police playing, ranging in age from their 20s to their 50s.

The game involved a badminton birdy type thing made of plastic that you kicked into the air. The men laughed, joked, yelled and kicked this thing back and forth around the circle, some sessions lasted more than 10 kicks, they were pretty good at it.
It was fun seeing these usually official, usually rather stern govt officials acting out like 12 year old boys. with no worries, just having fun with friends. We all need to keep the child inside us alive, once we lose the ability to be childlike we lose an important part of what it means to be alive.

I made one photo with the 4x5 Banarama but a faster wider lens camera like the Leica would have worked better.
