Description Vatican City, Italy

I took this shot in Vatican... as you probably know, the Swiss Guard is charged to protect the Pope and because of this important task they have to be serious and wear this strange uniform.

you should do some post work on the texture, you should blur, unsharp mask to a high pixel radius, and add film grain via 50% gray layer, it would make this look like an old timey photograph instead of a low quality digital photo.

If you think about it, Leonardo would have designed something even more odd, like a shirt that buttons diagonally or pants that are reversible.
