And the actors commented afterward that it makes it more fun for them too, when they can tell the audience is into it.

Livestock, though? Wow.

This looks like all darkly beautiful pictures and the event sounds like lots of fun. ;)
This looks all so real, yet it's in different wears of another time! Exciting and beautiful pictures! :)
