| New Fencing Poster
I've been collaborating with Serge Timacheff at FencingPhotos.com on a few projects and we've launched our first poster.
We have these in stock now and they will be available at summer nationals: http://shop.fencing.net/Fencing_Post.../fdn-83001.htm
Cheers,
Craig |

| Kind of a long answer (sorry!): I do try to keep a balance among weapons and genders for my images, and the products associated with them. Sometimes I end up taking more shots of one than the other, only because of where the FIE sends me for various grand prix events ... for example, I haven't been to any saber grand prixs this year, only two epee and foil, foil, foil (in addition to the world championships, where there's always all three in all forms). They have more reasons for sending me to various events and regions than simply the weapons fenced. But sometimes I go to other events on my own, or if I'm invited by the federation or LOC (e.g., the Peter Bakonyi World Cup).
Posters are expensive to produce in quantity; therefore we're only doing one right now. Last year I did the commemorative USFA poster of Sada and Mariel (I suppose that's a saber poster, in a way... ).
We'll see how the poster sales go and that will drive our further efforts.
There are some posters available in the "shop" area of FencingPhotos.com, which include saber (such as the "saber from above" photo -- which I think has top chances of becoming a poster such as the new one on Fencing.net--it's a popular image and one of my favorites). And you can still get the Sada & Mariel poster from Craig.

We have to see how this one does first.
