Stadium — Champions League Night, 2005 3

Two friends at halftime in the stadium concourse — a young person with short dark hair and warm brown skin holding a meat pie in one hand and a styrofoam cup of hot tea in the other, looking at the camera mid-bite. A stocky white guy with a buzzcut and patchy stubble, wearing a replica red home jersey two sizes too big with Carlsberg sponsor and Reebok logo, his face paint smeared from sweating during the first half, holding his own pie and tea, grinning wide. The concrete concourse stretches behind them — other fans queuing at food stalls, fluorescent strip lights overhead, programme sellers, the distant roar of the crowd still audible. Flash lights them flat against the concrete corridor. Heavy film grain, slight yellow-green color shift, the fluorescent lights adding a greenish tint, the face paint running. Natural skin texture with subtle pores and micro-imperfections, organic asymmetry in features.
