I think if there was some kind of photoshop in the early days of photography, there would have been alot more hoaxes! Some of my favorite old-time photographs and postcards are the rediculous ones with groups of hunters around a Pterodactyl or Sasquatch corpse. This is my homage to those fantastic old original creations! As usual Full View is the best option for seeing this image!

Sources and inspiration.

Inspired in one surrealist job of MAN RAY , the master of experimental photography.
His particular style included capitalizing unexpected effects and unusual JUXTAPOSITIONS of identifiable objects.
He did this first by reinventing several techniques, like the “rayograph”, in 1922, and “solarization”, in 1929.
This entry is a tribute to the man that could be called “the pioneer of worthians”.
