Pain of Defeat
by Charlene Ahrens (charahrens)

Camera:

Olympus E-510

Location:

Scottsdale, Arizona

United States of America

Photographer Notes:

Shot at a Squirt (youth) hockey tournament. I was using my back up camera. For some reason unknown to me a lot of the images were undersaturated. I converted the background to B&W and then over-saturated the colors in the goalie. I thought the technique enhanced the emotion of the moment.
