Great Pics Found By Phlebas And Other

[Barbaria1]

Thanks Barb, "the flowers in the hair" thing is not new, I got the idea from the illustration on a paperback about Roman games I based this early picture on. View attachment 105838 I also read that the victims where "garlanded" somewhere, possibly to play the role of a mythical story or just to make them look even prettier. I like the touch and will be using it again in some new pictures.

Good to know. Thanks Damian....I do like the garlanding of the victims. It is, as you say, a nice touch. But certainly not a sign of Roman sentimentality, is it? Really quite the opposite!

not alone your connection.....................it is slow

But dont depress my guys, no one is as slow as mine, Burma

Thanks, I visited the site but it came on slow, must be my connection. It would have taken me ages to go through all the material but it looks interesting, there is a message board in English so I must visit it again.

Pls c abv

It's very annoying when the internet is slow, just shows how spoilt we are, in the old days, we would need to post these images by snail mail or publish in paper! Now, even in Burma, you can get them over the firmament!

Great pics as usual. I especially like the 5th, it's the same style as from Makar.s crux site, the lighting is good.

Like 4 and 5 but #8 is my favorite. It's simple and straight forward yet feels very real.

the last picture interests me because she is restrained by simple buckles and snap rings- no locks- yet she has no way to free herself...
