Japanese traditional archery#2, a photo from 東京, 関東

Photographer's Note

Continuation from previous one (the first shooting of arrow in Japanese traditional styel).
They obeyed with the rule and tradtion very strictly.
The way to walk, stand, uniform, oreder and so on, everthing is very rigid. I admire thier uniforms are so sophisticated and beatiful. Each color seems to have different level for grade.

Hi Takero,

They are very dignified and beautiful costumes, a great tradition to keep up for such a noble and ancient sport. I like how you captured this as the man on right tenses the bow, I am expecting to see it shoot off the side of my screen any moment!
All the best
Noel

It is always good to see old traditions kept alive by determinded people. As you say, the traditional clothes are superb and the pose of the group very dignified. I like especially the little lady at the back of the group, she adds some good spirited humor to the scene.
have a good day
Daniel
