Challenge: Missing Link (Advanced Editing V)
Camera: Canon EOS-20D
Lens: Canon EF 17-40mm f/4L USM
Location: downtown
Date: Jul 15, 2007
Date Uploaded: Jul 15, 2007

 This is the missing neanderthal entering our modern world. I desided to basically do the opposite of my Portal photo (which was modern man entering an enchanted forest).

Thanks to my little brother who dressed up for me like that in public and 96 degree weather.

Also thanks everyone for the votes and comments ;)

Congrats on your blue ribbon. Of course I thought of your other frame photo when I saw this -- I'm glad to see this is yours, too. Well done!

So it was you after all, Justin. I kind of thought so after leaving my previous comment and then comparing the face with the other frame face. Great job! Love the dreads, and the leaves were a nice addition.

Nicely staged/photographed.

Awesome! really great job :D
With the title as such I see the portal as the missing link so I see the link in the shot. I do like the idea a whole lot and will come back to think about this one more.

edit: Well the missing link could be the person or whatever placed the portals there. Btw, cool wig and congrats and getting this shot in public LOL. Did you get on lookers?

An interesting whimsy, although more than a little derivative. Efficiently done.

Tribute to elsapo, huh? Nicely meets the challenge. This is a huge frame. I think you could have found a better background. The black squares on the ground detract from it, and a more obviously modern background scene would help it IMHO.

Clever, well taken photograph. A very "DPC" photo, but a really good one at that. Love the leaves around the frame.

mmm the image is great. I have some perplexity on the realization. the man in the frame is easy, my problem is that this frame seems in a real way. is the way a poster? I hope that you want explain the realization. 10

Here's the photo I'm sure we all dreamed about doing. If it's not a ribbon winner then I don't know what is. Excellent job! 10
