 Thanks everybody for your comments!

I got this Roman BATTLE Helmet in Rome the weekend before. I am so happy that I was able to wear my BATTLE helmet for a challenge.

This is super-hilarious!

Admire your creativity in this.

Upon the initial rating pass, this reviewer lost sight of the humor behind this image and was distracted by the light on the helmet. While making the comment phase of rating the image, this reviewer recaptured his sense of humor and took a second look. This image is both an artistic and technical success and is laugh-out-loud funny. Originally rated a 7, this has been rerated a 10 and it's well worth that upgrade. If the there is any justice in the world, this image should be a ribbon winner. Well done - seriously, well done.

Great shot! Wonderful expression, incredible helmet. But the tack is almost invisible against all the visual onslaught. Perhaps a lighter colored tack, or some d&b on the tack to make it pop a tad more.

What are all those curves in the background? It almost looks like you cloned part of the helmet and added it to the background several times. Not sure why you did that.

That helmet makes a great prop though.

If he's making all that fuss over a tack, imagine what he'd be like if someone stabbed him with a sword ;-)
