What a fascinating shot. I was wondering what was wrong with the guy till I read the description. I thought maybe he broke his nose. Mine sorta looked that way when I broke mine. Very neat idea.

Thanks Gaby, Dave! Genetics play such a role in our everyday lives. I would say they even shakle us, whip us, mock us. We grow up trying to be unique, different, and then one day you look in the mirror, and you go "Oh my god, I am my father", or mother. Predispositions aside I am glad I have my father's genes. My little brother is a spitting image of my father when he was young. Genetics willing this technique can be used on any family! ......Matt #131679

Wow, that must have been a LOT of PS work, but you did a great job! They really do look a lot alike. #143096
