This is a scene from "Gates of Fire". A Spartan commander orders for more reenforcements.

*Attempts to spot Paul*

Can you post it bigger please?

Sorry for the small size. I'm not sure what happened. I'll try to resize it tomorrow...

Still isn't working.I don't know what's wrong with Photobucket. I think it needs a large dosage of Viagra...

Good work.
Herodotus talks of Leonidas exchanging units by allowing the hoplites of each city state to fight in turns. I think you captured the moment nicely.
If you strive for extra accuracy may i suggest that the earth in the area is rather more "brownish" and the Kalidromon rocks gray. Hope you don't mind.
Kind regards

Stefanos,
Thanks, I'll keep this in mind! How narrow was the Thermopylae pass?
Johnny

According to Herodotus the road was wide enough for two ox-charts to pass leaving just enough space for a man between them.
That would allow extemely thick depth foe the phalanx ranks.
