    What is 'traditional kung fu' ?
    Chinese fighting arts developed before the advent of the modern age in China. Not to be confused with modern, post-1949, Wushu or competitive fighting such as kick boxing .

    This is the most common pic that is floating around. Many have said that it is indeed WFH, but it was floating around a while back and its a photo of WFH's tenth son. If you compare it with the birthday celebration pic it is the exact same guy. Apparently this photo is becoming more and more common since its actually being circulated AS WFH. If i'm not mistaken, even the WFH museum is now saying its WFH. Although when they first opened they purported that there were no photos of WFH.

    This picture can also be found in one of Leung Ting's books on Wing Chun. If i'm not mistaken, he's the first one that actually came out with the photo and said that Mok Gwai Lan (WFH's fourth wife) gave it to him.

    Now one of the funny things is that one of Mok Gwai Lan's students runs the WFH Museum and when they first opened they had no photos of WFH. If Mok gave the picture to Leung Ting (who has no connection to Hung Gar) why didn't her own student have it?

    One of the reasons thats said to give light to the picture issue is that during the Canton Riots, Po Chi Lam was destroyed and most of WFH's belongings were burned.

    Peace
