This is sort of tongue in cheek, due to This Thread!, I couldn't resist!
I am expecting low 5's, as I have a face for radio, it was super-lastminute and its not very nice. Taken with the 10-22 and just placed the camera on a shelf opposite with the timer, iso 1600 as it was so dull.
---------------------------------------
Very happy with my finish. For those interested on the subject here are some books I'd recommend:
Evolutionary anthropology : an introduction to physical anthropology and archaeology / Edward Staski, Jonathan Marks.
Theory of population genetics and evolutionary ecology : an introduction / Jonathan Roughgarden.
Macroevolution, pattern and process / Steven M. Stanley.
Phenotypic integration : studying the ecology and evolution of complex phenotypes / edited by Massimo Pigliucci, Katherine Preston.
Life's grandeur : the spread of excellence from Plato to Darwin / Stephen Jay Gould.
Neo-Darwinism / R.J. Berry.
Darwinism defended : a guide to the evolution controversies / Michael Ruse.
Unweaving the rainbow : science, delusion and the appetite for wonder / Richard Dawkins.
Blind watchmaker / Richard Dawkins.
Ever since Darwin : reflections in natural history / Stephen Jay Gould.
River out of Eden : a Darwinian view of life / Richard Dawkins.
Bully for Brontosaurus : reflections in natural history / Stephen Jay Gould.
Extended phenotype : the gene as the unit of selection / Richard Dawkins.
Selfish gene / Richard Dawkins.
Dawkins' God : genes, memes, and the meaning of life / Alister McGrath.
Climbing Mount Improbable / Richard Dawkins

| Back for a comment: you were out to get a particular image and you nailed it 100%. Yes, it was never going to do well with the voters, but I have laughed out loud once I "got it" which to me is more important. Great "out-of-the-box" shot. |

| I like his facial expression. Could just be me, but maybe a little dark around his face?? Still, a great image. |

| Great composition and idea. It seems a tad dark, and maybe if he were looking perplexed as he read the book instead of making eye contact with you, it would be perfect. |

| Evolution occurs only when it is spurred on. Set into motion. The chain reaction is Evolution, and there is always an alchemist at the helm. |
