Re: Challenge 859: Johann Friedrich the Magnanimous
Great guesses but it's not my school photo. It belongs to a member of my family who's face has been replaced by Johann's


I agree Loyd, I'd be worried if my baby looked like that

Gordon, that is just brilliant. Very witty

Re: Challenge 859: Johann Friedrich the Magnanimous
Thanks all for your comments. I reverted to my inner 10-year old with this one
Some really good images from everyone; I feel quite envious that I didn't think of them.

I'm sorry, Michael, but I did give a hint on Day 1 that I might do something like this. Thanks for the compliment. Yes I usually publish on Thursdays for two reasons: it stretches the enjoyment out as long as possible, and it allows me to do a U turn if somebody else has the same idea. BTW I don't like the nickname Platt much, but Platty is acceptable.

Little Annie Tranny. It was inevitable that this androgynous young man would get a female makeover. I did it myself. You've actually managed to make him/her quite attractive. The eye shadow is a particularly fine touch.

Thank you, David. The shape of the eyes and mouth was crucial and the hair was the most difficult.

Loyd the family is beautifully done. Seamless.

Anna I really enjoyed you family album. The baby is seriously disturbing. It reminds me of the painters who painted the baby Jesus as a kind of mini adult.

Jo it's funny what a successful asian he makes. I was surprised when making my entry how seamlessly he became a Japanese girl. Like so often with you it's a completely off the wall idea.

Thank you David - I was originally going for a shaven headed boy buddhist monk look - one way of getting rid of those flowing locks without having to negotiate the perils of a potentially wiggy looking transplant - when I found a picture of a novice monk ceremony where the boys head was an almost perdect match and Bingo!

Frank, I think an oboe solo must be about as rare as rocking horse excrement. Well sourced.

Thank you Michael - it took me quite awhile to find a suitable background music piece for this small clip.
Love your rendition and at first on seeing the Friday challenge I initially thought it was a girl
