Here are some of my digital pictures from the Myo Sim Kendo rank exam last night. I took 20-ish film shots, too, and I'm taking most of them to get developed later today.
Kyle!
One-step 2.
One-step 3.
Kneeling iai 2.
Awaiting instructions.
End of an iai. Probably Standing iai 1.
Standing iai 2.
Listening to Master Shaw.
Standing iai 3.
Standing iai 3, chiburi.
Brown belt Jo Kata fun.
Sword etiquette.
Master Shaw's sword.
More sword etiquette.
And more sword etiquette.
And then right before even a little bit more sword etiquette.
Armoring up for sparring.
More armor.
Pierre vs. Barry.
Some guy watching the test from the track.
Ann vs. Ian.
Sword vs. no sword.
More sword vs. no sword.
Four brown belts, one sword each, vs. a second-dan with two.
The successful candidates in their shiny new belts!
Another success picture.
Everyone (save our intrepid photographers).
