So, I spent the day at a fencing tournament, photographing members of my club as they went through their bouts. I had originally figured this would involve a couple of hours spent in a gym, watching some darn good fencers do their stuff, and taking photographs of them while they did so. Wrong. Seven hours and some five hundred frames later (in both JPEG and RAW, mind you), the event finally ended. Sustenance for the day? Half a bottle of water and a bag of popcorn. I was on a break between bouts when I took this picture.

And now, of course, you have some idea of what's probably coming over the course of the week.
