In the lively tapestry of Sidon’s old souks, a heartwarming scene unfolds as a group of spirited children turns a simple football game into a joyful parade.

As I captured the moment, the ball descends towards his cheek, creating a snapshot of both playful innocence and a brief, prayerful pause amidst the laughter and camaraderie.
