[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is one of the leg throws in judo - Uchi Mata means "Inner Thigh", and it's a very powerful throw executed at the right moment.
This snapshot is from my judo club Kodokan, where some friends are training.
The uchi mata presented right in this picture could be more played by the book, but uke (the blue one thrown) is much more heavy than tori (the one executing the technique)
Sorry about the noise, but I couldn't go lower than ISO 800 to get a fair exposure time and still catch some movement in the shot.
