Held yesterday in Berkley, Michigan. I wasn't able to stay all day, I had to work (the joys of being in IT and having 'maintenance windows' to work with).

However, here are my photos. I'm not that pleased with them - this is my second attempt attempt at karate tournament photos. I don't use flash, because I don't wish to distract the competitors. That means I am stuck with high ISO, blurred photos due to slow shutter speeds, and wonky lighting due to weird gymnasium lights and those bizarre polished wood floors. I used a white-balance in my later shots and it helped, but again, still not my best work.
