Thx very much... I went to the local thai boks arena, Koh Lanta with my new Fuji X-E1 with 35mm 1.4. I got a front seat. Before every fight the boxers make a dance to honor the spirit and the coach.

Behind The Lens

Location

Koh Lanta, Thailand.. Feb 2015. I went to the local Thai Box arena, this was a very local stadion.

Time

Night time, around 9 o'clock in the night

Lighting

The light was not so good, only from the spots.

Equipment

Fujifilm X-E1 with the amazing Fujinon 35mm 1.4

Inspiration

Hmm. For me this was new.. The camera with the slow autofocus system, i had a 35mm on, which force me to get near/close. I use to walk around like a ninja :-) but here every body could se me. Most of me said that i should not go around, but it was to tempting and i am very happy that i did it. Thai boks is much more then fighting, blod and honor.. ( In Thailand ) So many traditions, respect, feelings.

Editing

Just little, i crop the picture and gave it a bit of vintage look.

In my camera bag

Fuji X-T1, Fuji X-Pro, Fuji X100T, 16mm 1.4, 35mm 1.4 and 90mm 2.0

Feedback

Hmm.. Just Breathe.. Remember to look up... Some times try some new, maybe you like it :-)
