The costume is fantastic. The model's expression is priceless. I like the brick wall The vat is an interesting touch, but it seems a little non-martial and it interferes with the rifle. And as much as I love to photograph dead wood, I think the stick is better left out . I think the shot might be better with a little more bokeh.

A nice effort.

He looks almost like he might have been in the Napoleonic Wars :))) No, just kidding. Nice picture, good idea for nostalgia. I like the colours. ~9

nice compositon and pose. the background is too cluttered but the shot works pretty well overall

too wonderful...have you always had a napolonic bent? I think that nostalgia is for things experienced but that's just my 2 cents - reading the thread about this challenge and the confusion between the word and the challenge rules I have to bend on this

This a good idea, but it lacks the mood. I feel a b&w or sepia tone would have improved this shot radically.
