Games Convention

Leipzig, Germany. This is now the worlds largest gaming tradeshow. I was surprised how many of these kids had flown from all over the world (including many from the USA), just to see the next years games, before anyone else. In this case, to play some on PSP. I go because I love the work, they go because they love the games.

    well done, though I wish I could more kids in the background.

    I don't agree with Mark, wishing for more kids in the back. This seems the perfect aperture for the shot. Still establishing the frantic, crowded location, whilst not distracting attention from the concentrated looks. Very nice contrast between chaos and concentration.
    And there's Fanatic written on each face you see. Well done using available light.
