I love greek art and their work trying to reach human perfection. I want to share a pic with you, a very gorgeous pic that could be great if transformed into a greek sculpture.

look at the expression of his face, the muscles on the legs, his toes. even when it's not in motion, you can feel the energy and the emotions. male bodies are one of the big works of nature.
the greeks designed their statues naked. I would add a speedo on the naked body. a real speedo.

wow vey nice pictures: these two pics are what I was actually reffering. just in one caption they could transmit the movement and the energy of the diver. in the same time they show the wonderful male body and every muscle. the speedos are just like part of the body.

greek sculptures showed nude males; putting a speedo would leave more to the imagination.

I love the face expression of the second picture, the way the hands show that the body is in motion. the powerful abs.

thank you dear SwimTeamSpeedo! :)

yes, indeed the face says everything. he's trying to do the best performance. I also like the position of his toes, just like fins.

thanks again!

He wouldn't make it to being a greek sculpture, he's Chinese. Kinda ruins the pic.

in some way you're right, but adding the word "ruins" makes me think that actually being chinese makes this look bad. you could have said "it's would be better if"..., or "maybe it would be called like this, and not greek... " or even "well, greeks didn't make asian-looking sculptures, so I think that..."

BUT: "he's Chinese. Kinda ruins the pic." WOW THAT'S A HORRIBLE EXPRESSION!

by the way, where are you from?
