I’ve seen some gada with very large mace heads. I have yet to hold one though. I imagine they are heavy, hence the skill required to actually use them successfully in actual combat. Otherwise it could be the equivalent to taking a 10lb long-arm sledgehammer into a fast-pace sabre duel.
He is very, very fit. I guess the training works. A nice photo for him to
rememerb what work he did on his body if he decides to stop.
Great photo, as always, you never disappoint. Thanks for posting.
I am seriously blown away by this Indian Martial art form, Kalaripayattu. I had always seen them fighting with sword, spear, shield, Trishule etc. Now i know they use Gada as well. Seeing the players swinging in air and attacking the opponents is a visual treat. very artistic picture Daniel.
That is a nice shot focusing the Gada…
Great shot… Loved the frame and focus…
Nice and intense!
both the Gada and gaze are amazing….

Nice capture! : )
Wonderful selective focus.
Great shot indeed…. You have captured the full expression….
another great one !
concentration is so intense, I am more scared of the person wielding the gada then gada itself!
Beauty, love the sharpness of the weapon.
Superb shot Joshi! Love the sharp gada and softer background!
Very nice lighting and composition!
Another lovely photo! Bravo!
Beautiful shot Joshi :) love the depth of field and the lighting. Did you light this or was it shot in available light, either way very nice work.
Nice……
The short captures the intense focus of the martial artist
Great shot Joshi! Not sure why but feel its got a 3-D effect to it! Very cool though! :-)
So alive!!

Well executed. I like the focus on the wooden weapon without too much loss of detail on the trainee.
Brilliant shot.
Lovely composition with focus spot on.
Fear my hammer!
Beautiful composition! Love this attitude.
Have a nice day.
Very nice, the depth of field you used is perfect…really makes the shot!
Excellent shot. Kalarippayattu is the mother of martial arts and we need to popularize this martial art form.
