half the story

Junior left his ice hockey kit to dry in the front porch as he won't need it for 3 weeks while he's in Asia. Some went in the washing machine, but gloves, helmet, shorts and all the pads just have to be left "airing".

The porch gets lots of sun, so ideal.

The other half of the story (in one sense) is the stench.

In another sense, the other half of the story is that the shot was taken in natural light at 10pm and hasn't been enhanced.
