if you've ever felt the urge to give your inner musketeer a go, then I'd highly recommend you check out Kanata Fencing located at 329 March Road.   

Earlier this month I had the awesome opportunity to photograph people having fun with swords at Kanata Fencing.    While my brother and I had tried fencing in the early-1990s at a summer sports camp, this was my first time photographing fencing action.   Safe to say, with my trusty camera and natural reflexes I had a joy freezing the motion.      

One of my favorite shots of the day.   Do you like it too?   

I never loved my 500mm telephoto lens so much...

Playing hard for the camera, and I loved every moment of it!

They felt so close, and low to the ground, as they buzzed around me and a few others watching the show from a farmer's field.   Check out that underbelly!   

My first time seeing the RAF Red Arrows in action, and loved ever second of their colourful air show!   My favorite moment was when they formed a hard, and drove an arrow right through it...

All this left and right, kept me and my camera jumping up and down with joy. 

The Snowbirds and Red Arrows flypast my home in downtown Ottawa, after first doing so over the new British High Commission Building on Sussex Drive to mark its opening.  Living in a national capital city sure has its advantages! :)
