カンフー・ファン必見!愛と宿命のバトルを繰り広げる『グランド・マスター』

すべての始まりは、ウォン監督が『ブエノスアイレス』撮影中のアルゼンチンで、ブルース・リーが表紙の雑誌を見たこと。遠い外国で愛され続けている彼の映画を撮りたいと熱望したのだ。それから17年の間に、構想は中国武術の世界へと広がり、8年もの歳月をかけて、膨大な資料の研究と、現在のグランド・マスターたちへの綿密な取材を実施した。動乱の時代に翻弄された20世紀前半を中心に、中国武術の壮大な歴史に真正面から立ち向かい、撮影に3年を費やした渾身の最新作となった。
また、役者陣には今やアジアから世界のトップスターに登りつめた、トニー・レオン、チャン・ツィイーの二大俳優に加え、鋭利な存在感で異彩を放ったチャン・チェンら豪華なメンバーが集結。全カンフー・ファンが待ち焦がれていた超大作がいよいよ日本公開を迎え、期待は高まるばかりだ。
世界をのみこむ戦争の足音が刻一刻と迫る1930~40年代、中国。流派を極めた長は宗師〈グランド・マスター〉と呼ばれるが、北の八卦掌の宗師である宮宝(ゴン・バオ)は引退を決意し、その地位と生涯をかけた南北統一の使命を最強の者に譲ろうとする。
候補は形意拳の使い手である一番弟子の馬三(マーサン)と、南の詠春拳の宗師・葉問(イップ・マン)。パオセンの娘で、奥義六十四手を唯一受け継ぐ宮若梅(ゴン・ルオメイ)も、父の反対を押して名乗りを上げる。
だが、野望に目の眩んだマーサンがパオセンを殺害、ルオメイはイップ・マンへの想いを胸の奥底に沈め、女としての幸せを捨て、仇討ちを誓う。継承者争いと復讐劇、愛と憎しみが絡み合う、壮絶な幕が切って落とされた。八極拳の宗師で一線天(カミソリ)と呼ばれる謎の男も、不穏な動きを見せている。果たして、力と技と心で闘いを制し、真のグランド・マスターとなるのは誰か──?

Monks looked up at the magnificent night sky filled with thousands of lanterns in awe. Yi Peng lantern festival is meant as a time for tham bun to make merit. This was the moment I've been waiting for and it lasted very quickly due to strong wind. A very heavy downpour occurred right after we left the place. The lanterns were made of organic materials.

Holi - the festival of colors - is undoubtedly the most fun-filled and boisterous of Hindu festivals. It's an occasion that brings in unadulterated joy and mirth, fun and play, music and dance, and, of course, lots of bright colors!

The Australian Mens Olympic Waterpolo Team are photographed in an empty Bondi Icebergs pool at Bondi Beach on May 31, 2012 in Sydney, Australia. The Aussie Sharks as they are known were finalsing their preperations for the 2012 London Olympic Games when I asked them to pose in an famous ocean pool...with the twist of it being empty.

All my high speed pictures are single shots without any Photoshop manipulation. I only adjust the levels of contrast. Some little sprinkles are cleaned with PS. That's all the processing.

The calm of both human and animal. The things we miss as we are preparing. My partner was getting her flippers on and I was already prepared and ready to get in so I swam out to see if I could get this shot, I could have never imagined that in a million years I would have a turtle just cruising by at the moment I stuck my head under. How blessed.
