Roman market near the temple of Castor
The forum near the temple of Castor in Rome is already busy on this early summer morning day, with sellers offering all kinds of goods from all over the Imperium and buyers out for the day's bargain. Among the wares on offer are some slaves recently brought to the Empire's capital. It won't be long before the two girls in the foreground find a new owner...
The background for the scene is taken from the BBC Rome TV series. Modelling for the girl in the centre of the scene is Lily, who seems just perfect for the role. The model for the second slave girl is unidentified.
The 'Roman Market' sees Lily's eleventh appearance in a Kamerijk manipulation. The source is by Silvanusart, from a session on 15 December 2017. This is one of Lily's rare bondage sessions, the red cords loosely binding her wrists being part of the original source image. The figure has been mirror flipped to ensure consistency with the lighting direction on the other figures and background, and the hair below her chin has been very neatly extracted. This suggests the use of a masking technique, although I do not know if this can be done in the GIMP programme?
Colour and contrast are carefully adjusted to ensure that the inserted figures blend successfully into the foreground, and there is a good sense of character interaction between the girls and the prospective customers. Kam has confirmed the identity of the second female as Chrissy Marie, as indicated by @E-DigitalFantasy . She has also been flipped to achieve a consistent lighting direction, and again the restraints are part of the source image, albeit carefully overpainted. E-DigitalFantasy is probably the only photographer to have shot both Lily and Chrissy Marie in handcuffs, which makes their joint appearance in this manip something of a happy coincidence. Nice work, Kam!
