What could possibly go wrong?

Bhutan's national sport spills over into the street celebrations at a Thimpu festival.

Portra 160, MP, and either the 50Asph or 35 FLE Summilux.

Terrific. He's a lefty. It's their national sport and from what I've seen there may be no better archers anywhere. They were hitting tiny targets, far away that I couldn't even see without binoculars or my long lens.

This target was a bit closer, but I know the ones to which you refer; very impressive, as you say.

Fabulous! Love that first picture, you can see the concentration on the bowman's face.
