Steve vs. Michelangelo's David



David wins! Steve does have an unearthly glow about him though...

A french lady growled at me for taking this pic, and Steve's brand new aunt-type person (he loves her ovaries) was ready to throw down! Go illicit picture taking! Woot! Then there is the requisite gushing about this statue, which I will save you from, but which will burst forth one day...go see it or you have lived a cold, empty life...

Why did someone growl? Because you dishonoured David by comparing him to a gnome, or was it the flash?

I'm pretty sure it was the "no foto" signs all around, but it's OK to photograph marble- they even put it outside and stuff! Flashes only damamge the paintings, but frescoes are fine. Methinks David would laugh a deep, hearty HA at being compared to a gnome, unless he's like David Beckham and has an unusually high voice...
