    He is not in character during Palio of Siena.

    He looks from a window overlooking the "Madonna dell'Assunta Palio di Siena" traditional horse race race in Siena, Tuscany, central Italy, Thursday, Aug. 16, 2007.
    Horses and their jockeys often tumble during the frenzied race, which pits Siena's 17 neighborhoods against one another and is a major tourist draw for this Tuscan city. Animal rights group have denounced the race as cruel to animals. More than 30 animals have died since 1975. A little as corrida in Spain ... But it is an ancient italian tradition.

    But this Palio is part of next Bond 22.

    I wonder if this is a scouting day or a shooting day. More specifically, is Craig 'in costume' here? Look at the watchband. It doesn't look like the links on the Seamaster. Maybe the Planet Ocean with a stainless band (a combination I find a bit less gaudy than the Seamaster). Lord, why do I obsess about these things?!?!?!?!?

    Its odd that hes there - maybe hes just a tourist.

    ...Or maybe the unit is getting some footage of Bond running around, just for the heck of it.

    Nice shots!

    Is that Michael G Wilson making another cameo there at the 2nd picture? :D
