I have been learning this Korean martial art of sword for three years. Currently I am a first-degree blackbelt. Kumdo is similar to kendo, the Japanese martial art of sword. Every summer our federation holds a tournament in a nearby Minnesota state park. Here are some pictures from the 2002 event, courtesy of Mr. Andrew Haugen.
I am a student at Marquart's Taekwondo & Kumdo, located in Moorhead, Minnesota. We always welcome new students! If you are interested in kumdo, feel free to contact me.
When I was fourteen years old I began to develop an interest in photography. My father taught me the principles and gave me his first fully-manual camera, (?). For one reason or another, during my high school and college years, I had not taken many pictures. But it's always been something I want to resume. Six months ago I finally bought a used digital camera, (?). Here are some pictures. I hope to make more roadtrips around the region, taking my camera along.
A secret project of mine. Actually, only a couple of people in this world know what the heck I am talking about here. Chances are it will never happen. But one can dream. First I need to learn how to type in Chinese. Equally impossible is to get the early sources back in my possession, perhaps by loan or collaboration. Vague enough for ya?
