Pictures from the Aikido Seminar in Sofia, Bulgaria, November 2003

These are all the pictures I took at the seminar. A lot of them are bad, poorly lighted or unfocused, but I included them for completeness.

I learned something about camera work this time: If the light is bad, autofocus doesn't work. If the subject is far away, the flash is little help. Any good photographer already knows these things, but I'm still learning. Unfortunately, my learning process means that a number of pictures that would look nice otherwise were ruined by being dark or out of focuse. Gomen nasai.

The original pictures are bigger, but they would take too much space on the webserver. If you want the original picture (so you can print it, for instance), mail me at matija.grabnar@arnes.si, and I will send it to you.

If I had misspelled anybody's name, please let me know, and I will fix it...

I hope you like the pictures, I certainly liked being there to take them.

Best regards,
