In my prior Calendar Project post I mention a “Trick or Treat so others may eat” food collecting project. This group of fine young people were part of that project as well.

If I could capture the energy this group was emitting and funnel it as fuel into some type of car I’m certain I could drive from here to the Pacific Coast and back with fuel left over. These kids had obviously been dipping into soda and candy before they arrived. But still, what a great group.

Most of the faces were turned towards a parent standing to the right of me make a group photo with a point and shoot camera when I snuck this one in. Of course a couple of them zeroed in on me — I had the biggest camera. :-) The on-board flash of my D700 added a little brightness.

Are these guys having fun, or what? That’s one of the secrets of giving…it’s fun. ;-)

I don’t think I’d want to be in charge of calming them down at the end of the night… you’ve done a good job of capturing their energy in this shot.

There is nothing like youngsters when they have a common goal. Fine group shot.

We work with groups of kids at the museum with this kind of energy frequently. It’s a real blast but we wear down faster than the kids! We also make them check their beverages at the front desk.
