Not long ago I was asked to photograph a special event at a local karate dojo. The event was a very rare occasion as three high ranking karateka were performing the same kata in sequence. In addition, Zoku, who is not often found performing a kata in public, did just that – many times.

To share the experience with the world, I decided to do something special of my own.
Because a big part of karate is the community, sharing and education – I wanted to share the experience on my blog, and the same time, educate my readers. But that isn’t all I did. Zoku has been kind enough to share short descriptions of each photograph. So in the articles, you will experience:
- The karate photographs
- The description of what is happening in the photograph
- How the event & karate description relates to photography

These are some of the photographs in the series, but there are many more to follow. Please visit the When Photography & Karate Merge series and enjoy.
