| Great photos Serge! I'm glad you know how to take real fencing pictures...
You need to write a book on how to shoot Fencing pictures... I'd buy it. | |

| Thanks ... in fact, I've written two books on photography, both of which cover fencing. The first was "Total Digital Photography" (Wiley, 2004) and the second will be released in late August -- "Digital Sports Photography: Take Winning Shots Every Time" (also Wiley). | |
