MMA pictures

          Over the past couple project days, I’ve done some new cool things.  I actually got to spar with my sponsor, which was pretty cool.  It was basically him throwing slow punches and me trying to block them, until he finally said, “You can try and hit him sometimes too”.  I still feel a little awkward aiming to hit someone but it’s fun and so much more tiring than you would think.  I also learned some new combinations and footwork but I’m not going to get into the specifics again.  But what was really exciting for me was last Thursday I got to take pictures of advanced MMA (mixed martial arts) fights.  The fighting was very controlled and every move was calculated.  Here are some of the pictures I took, Eve and I are sending him a CD of all the shots so he can print them and/or put them on his Facebook page.  We also agreed to make a slide show of all the pictures that he can play on the TV in the studio. 

            I addition, while helping with a kids class on Friday morning I got to snap some cute shots of the little kids in there martial arts class but I will post those another day!
