Jonathan Xia-Documentative Photos

Sixth Photo

Seventh Photo

Again, the photo was meant to capture the essence of photo, in this case, the patience in waiting for the right

moment to strike.

This time, I tried to use leading lines

to direct attention to the Fencer

further away from the camera, rather

than letting the viewer's eye stray off

the photo.

This photo was meant to prepare for an upcoming one. In this case, I took a photo of one of the Fencers (and a friend of mine), Gabriel, and I was planning to take

another photo of him whilst Fencing.

Fourth Photo

Second Photo

(Pretty much the same reason as the first photo)

In this photo, I wanted to capture the same essence as the

first photo, only this time, actually

showing the students/fencers

working hard.

In this photo, the students/fencers

are all performing a lunge.

I tried to use the lines on the floor as leading

lines, but didn't succeed too well in doing so.

This photo was deliberately taken (although you can't exactly have a photo taken non-deliberately ) and placed

after the previous. Showing that

a student has learned.

It is a decent up-close candid shot,

but like the previous photo, lacks

thought and use of photography

skills.

First Photo

Ninth Photo

Eighth Photo

I had wanted to take a photo similar to this one ever since I started a project. But it isn't exactly easy to take a photo of two swords, 5mm wide, which are

constantly moving around. I wanted

the photo to be symmetrical; with

another sword on the left side of the

photo, however, in this case, I only

managed to capture one.

I tried to capture the face of a Fencer behind the mask,

but I also managed to grab the moment in

which the Fencer in this photo, Jamine,

was saluting to another Fencer (shown in

the upcoming photo)

The photo shows a period of footwork training in

Fencing, in which Fencers must maintain an

en garde position whilst performing certain

movements and sequences, from simply moving backwards/forwards at a slow pace, to more

complicated patterns (e.g Lunge-squat,

lunge-squat)

I wanted to capture both the students and the

coach(es) at the same time, but in a slightly less

cliche manner (Taking a photo at eye level of

all the students and a teacher). I purposely

"sneaked" (while causing a lot of racket, and

with permission from the coach beforehand)

behind the coach during training and took the

photo, purposely showing only the lower half of

the coach. This helps the photo stir up a bit of

thought as people usually wonder what all the

students/fencers are staring at.

Third Photo

Fifth Photo

Tenth Photo

This photo (finally) shows some actual Fencing, in a bout.

It wasn't meant to convey anything special, but simply

show what Fencing was like up-close.

I particularly liked how I managed to

take the photo from a first person

perspective, almost putting the viewer

in the shoes of the Fencer (the one

closest to the camera)

This photo shows one of the coaches (Coach Henry) helping a Fencer (Oscar) with his wire.

Other than the fact that I took this

photo in order to get a candid shot...

The photo was to reflect the idea of

education and knowledge transfer;

Teachers/coaches teaching and

helping their students.

I think this is a good candid shot,

but in some senses, lacks the use of

any photography skills.

This photo expresses the more fun side of Fencing. Here

we have Jamine and Gabriel (shown in the previous 2 photos) colliding with each other after performing a fleche

too close to each other. I deliberately

left in Coach Henry's (whom was also

in a previous photo) presence in

order to carry the message across that

this was not a serious moment,

in which someone got hurt. But one

that was meant to show (in a rather

ridiculous way) the pure joy of

Fencing.
