En garde!
Fencing doesn’t get a lot of press, so when I got to shoot the sport while working for the Norwalk Hour, it was … well.. interesting.
But let me say this: Sometimes when it comes to a photo, it’s the little things that matter.
This photo–this fencing photo–is a moment that displays that vividly. At least to me.
Note the fencer on the right. He (or she) is out of focus, but her contact is vivid. Look at her saber (read: Sword). It has made contact. It is bent. Two points. Maybe one.
Bottom line: She scored.
So I know I captured a moment. At least in a sport where I don’t really know what moments matter.
