Great shot, but what distracts for me is that his face and hands are grey. I think it would work better with just the background grey.

Howdy John and Alain!

Thank you very much for your comments. Regarding your question Alain, the clothes of the Swiss guard actually have the colours you see on the picture. They are indeed quite spectacular.

Hi Fred,

I'm not an expert, but is that clothing really so awkwardly colored ? Or did you play with some hue shifts ? Great entry !
