Nice set up. Looks like you really went to the ancient Rome :) The guy in the right doesn't seem to happy about sparing the gladiator.

I really like this photo. Nice theme and authentic looking. I like the angle, but the crop is a little tight for my liking. 7

The contrast with the ruins and people dressed emaculately for the period makes this picture feel goofy and out of place.

Thumbs up.

Nice photo, the colors seem a bit washed out and it may have had more impact rotated.

WOW. Doesn't look set up with a modern building in the background like many in this competition. This is just perfect. Best I've seen after 100 votes or so.
