    Japanese Archery, or Kyudo (the way of the bow).
    I’ll make my excuses now, the sun was really strong and I struggled with it also my jurassic camera technology is not great for this kind of event (fixed 50mm).
    There are a few more included in a set on flickr
    Shot on Fujifilm Acros 100 (Btw the clothes were beautiful greens and reds and oranges etc.)

    Thanks for looking,
    Martin

    lovely set martin, im sure it was a nice day out, plenty to take in!

    I particularly like the last, the tryptich works well, like something from an old training manual.

    well done
