I have always been acutely aware of body language. As much as we try to disguise it, the real me/you comes out. It tells a wealth of information. The folded arms means you are not comfortable in the situation you are in so you choose to protect you body. The flight or fight when your face reddens, your body naturally pumps with adrenalin for the fight or maybe the 'get on your heels and run away'. This part I really had to recognise in my former job... was he/she about to run or punch me square in???

There are also the comforts you adapt when faced with talking to huge room of strangers (if you look at Prince Charles he always holds or touches his cuff when delivering a speech)
Mine is putting my hands behind my back and holding my hands together.
It is fascinating to watch people in public how they interact.. the formal business type meetings in public places and the flirty pick up scenarios..... we really are an exquisite species to behold.
So this brings me (albeit in a round about way) to Krees's photos. This batch are of footballers .. doing what they do ... playing, smiling and confronting .. also the crowd when there is nothing going on. How bored do they look????



This made me laugh.. a great photo for 'Spot the Ball'
