That bottom pic almost looks like Ron LaClair with his 52" Shrew Classic Hunter.

 

Sorry that was the first thing that came to mind!!

I think Gil got it. I believe that is Artemis in the first pic, reaching for an arrow in her quiver is a classic depiction.

She looks much better without me.  :D  
And I do have a picture of Ron around here...   :rolleyes:  
Anybody else have pics of ancient, classical archers? I could look at them for hours. They are a tangible connection to our honorable past, and an inspiration to continue the best parts of our tradition.
