we flew south ...



... to indulge in a growing affection for roman marble











lintels !




beards







and when i rule the universe, this is where you'll find us on bath nights

















the god of the nile

a bit of raphael

















romans tip-toeing through the ages







grrr !











hey ! isn't that rene magritte's old jacket ?


a sunday school teacher at the office said i should bring her some leather-bound relics from rome ... with louis vuitton written all over 'em


those australian barmaids again


bring me my bow of burning gold


a bold promise


night must fall


inside the pantheon


outside the pantheon


water water everywhere
