First Tae Kwon Do instructors and black belt members from all across Perth practised three-step sparring during a recent training session.

Even f/2 on my 85 mm prime lens gives a good deal of sharpness if focus is correct; note the details visible in the white uniforms even though the photographs above are at greatly reduced size.
