Contest 230: Dead as a dodo
I photographed this dodo on a museum visit back in December. Not the best of shots - it was behind glass, and you can see the reflection of some lights over its head. Can you bring this extinct creature back to life, and perhaps suggest some genetic modification that would prevent it facing the same fate again? High res is here.  |

With his new found friend and fancy new wings the Dodo felt secure for the first time in ages. |

Apologies, noticed I'd switched the other wing layer off and saved without it.  |

The Dodos finally reckoned that the time had come in their bid for world domination. It was now .......... or never!
