About John this one is for you, my proud Greek friend :)
I attended the Greek parade on Sunday and was fascinated on how seriously these guys took their representation of the Greek Hoplite Warriors.
A bit of history:
Hoplites, which means "weaponed or armed men" crafted sophisticated weaponry and armor to meet what came to be formalized Hellenic shock warfare. The helmet, breastplate, and greaves were constructed entirely of bronze, providing immunity from the attacks of most swords, missiles, and spears. An enormous three-foot shield which the Greeks called an Aspis covered half the infantryman's own body.

There was Greek independence day going on Sunday, I didn't even know about it and once I got to the city I saw all the blue and white around so I shot for a while :)

Glad you like it my dear friend.

Jen, they were so serious about their representation at the parade. There was this one guy who kept walking around and telling them to stay in line...it was quite funny. There's always something going on in NYC Jen, no wonder I love this place as much as I do :)
I am glad you like it dear friend. I hope all is well. Think about my proposal to visit Brazil yet? ;)
Big hug,
Julie.

At first I didn't think this picture was good Arif, it was such a gray day very tough light and I didn't have my tripod but I guess it turned out ok. I am glad you like it my dear friend.
I always appreciate your feedback.
Big kiss and hug :)
Julie.
