Photographer's Note
Yet another shot from Bangkok's Lumpinee Stadium and the Muay Thai for which it's famous.
Although these shots are all starting to look similar to me, I like this one with the highlighted sweat flying off the fighters.
I hope you like the shot,
- Dan

All right, I think it's time to comment something to one of your sporting pictures... I don't find them particularly exciting because I don't like the genre. A snapshot of a fight simply doesn't describe the fight to me, doesn't reflect the complex and dynamic action. But this being said, the shot is very good and I could easily see it in the morning newspaper, together with a report of the fights from the previous night. The black and white option adds to the dramatism and the shutter speed (what was it?) was chosen very well for capturing some motion. The flying sweat and the concentration on the faces of the fighters are great. So, what's up with this really long series of shots? Do you love Muay Thai, or do you hope to get an assignment from a sports magazine?

Hey Dan,
I was at a boxing match in Montreal last night, so this image makes me want to have been closer to the stage and try my hand at these kinds of shots. I agree with you that the flying sweat add to this image.
Have a good weekend - Paul

This one of the best with the sweat flying, movement in the ropes and arm of the fighter on the right.
Good DOF and exposure Dan.

I think these guys should smile while they are fighting.. to give a friendly atmosphere to the evening. Someone might get the wrong idea.. anc call 911!

you can feel the force of the hit in his stomach with his leg through the drops that fly up in the air and the face of the receiver. nice shot!
