This is a diorama at the Smithsonian museum. It's been there since I was a little demon and badly wanted to climb into and play with the toylike little dinosaurs, and I'm sure it's been around a lot longer than that. I love it, but I also find it hilarious that the Smithsonian would have a diorama with such badly outdated depictions of the dinosaurs. There are scads of terrific artists producing amazingly lifelike models, and I bet most of them would pay the museum to be displayed (I would!). Ah well . . . I'm 35 and I *still* want to play with the dinosaurs.

This photo was good chop practise - the original was terribly washed out and parts were obscured by glass reflection. It look pretty damn seamless now, tho.
