Palio afterparty, the winners

Excellent, great depth, great story telling. It really gives a sense of place.

Great photo :).

This picture has a sense of action and depth which is partly do to the arrangement of people caught in interesting poses and partly to the wonderful use of lights and darks which reinforce the sense of crowded claustraphobia.

Oh, I love this!  Especially having just come from viewing the longer view, before these people arrived.  Boundless energy, immersed right here in the midst of the crowd.  Madness!  Of a most joyous sort.  Gunnar, this is wonderful, truly.  (The woman with the pacifier looks a bit odd...a raver in old Siena?  Why not...)

The woman with the pacifier is on Ecstasy, the drug is so powerful that she could grind her teeth down to nothing. The pacificaer keeps her fro getting injured.

A lot different when we were kids and smoked a little pot.
