 taken at the finals of the Commonwealth games rugby 7s
An elderly Fijian supporter was sitting a few rows ahead. She kept the flags rolled up and only unrolled them and waved them when Fiji scored. She had interesting hands and I looked for fiji to score more often so I could get a good shot of them.

The title had to tell me what to look for in the image. Oncamera flash flattened the light and made it appear a bit hot against a confusing background.
