I like the black and white. Much stronger than they would have been in colour.

I agree, in fact I think I am going to re-upload the one I left in color too. When I first dumped all of them I despaired when I saw them on screen (I'm not sure why but the 350D doesn't let you shoot in B&W) but then I started dumping the color and I felt ok again...

Great pictures!

You guys do unbendable arm? That's awesome. I always loved how surprised the newbies would be when they realized they could do it as well as the black belts. Ki and physics, a winning combination.

That shot of the Yudansha at the end of suwari-waza kokyu-ho is lovely. You really captured his expansiveness.

I love the ki testing. Last night we did an hour of it at the advanced class. A lot of us feinting at our partner then laughing as we all totally flinched, even the fifth, sixth or more times.

Yudansha is the black belt? The terms are all coming so slowly since I have to pick them up in context (and with funny accents). (For that matter what is kokyu-ho?)
