IdeaWar! It's on!

It's always fun when you get to do something that you've never done before. For me, it was taking pictures of a Charity Paintball tournament, put on by the good people at Idea Share. It was a pretty incredible day, and even though I was "on the sidelines" taking pictures, I still managed to get shot a few times - ouch!

The troops begin to gather.



Of course, stretching is a must. Although, I'm not sure why Neil is wearing a pink hat...he does look good though!



This looks like practice for a surrender, but it's actually part of the stretching program.






There were so many players - I couldn't wait to see them in action!



Some of the gear, remember - safety first!



Preparing for battle!






Would you mess with this guy? I sure wouldn't.









You can just make it out in the distance. There is actually the barrel of a paint-gun pointing out of the window in that shed over there.






And he's out of the game!



The refs checking to see if they have a confirmed hit.







Thanks for the great day everyone. Can't wait for next year!
