I had two shots of this couple, the first one showing her taking a photo of him posing in front of the arena. That was the one that I was originally going to use, but then I noticed his "thumbs up" stance in this one. I'm not sure whether he was just pleased with the result of the photo, or encouraging the Emperor to show mercy.

I hope it was the former. I'd hate to think that I missed some good, juicy gladiatorial combat while I was shooting photos.
