The image shows a man dressed in a dramatic, historical or fantasy-inspired costume portraying a warrior. He has his face painted with blue designs, possibly to mimic ancient or tribal war paint. He is wearing attire that includes animal furs and a leather tunic, accessorized with ropes, beads, and a sword attached to his belt. He is also holding what seems to be a mug or a similar object and striking a playful pose extending his fist toward the camera. In the background, there are buildings with stone and brick facades, suggesting the photo might have been taken in an urban area rich in historical architecture, possibly during a festival or a reenactment event.

Usually I try to prevent to appear in my own photos but when seeing Adam Waters seven years after my last visit in I had to talk to him again (he's a Metal fan and teacher by the way!) and couldn't resist posting this historical incorrect shield wall of (left) and a Viking-wannabe (right, me) here.

Adam's a great guy and is part of the just beneath for more than twenty years now. All money he collects is donated to children for the fight against Leukemia and it is told he raised more than 2 million pounds over the years - read a great anecdote on Adam's story here:
