Seconds after capturing his tears the crisis was over and he was laughing and playing happily again. :)

Hi Waynecook, the story is... he was crying because his older brother took the ball off him, OMG!!! He had a tiny melt down, just as soon as i took the shot he was laughing and playing again. Given the drama i felt the need to make the image dramatic like his mood at the time. :)
