April 24, 2009 3:15pm I've been enjoying these photos, not only can I appreciate the overall look of the photo, and the wonderful costume...of which origin I am uncertain of...
but your aura and physicality belie a stong vintage sensibility coupled with the image of a strong modern male...
...it would be interested to compare this picture with that of a drum major (?) from the past, and to see that the costume has remained much the same;
whilst the structure of the "common man" has changed much indeed...yet in someways not...
