 Quite a few people have asked me for the story behind this image. I was commissioned to shoot this performance at a school in another town for a large company. The performance was based on people trying to communicate with people who don't necessarily talk the same as them.

The character behind the door is a Martian.



The other character was a rabbit.



That struck up a friendship at a strangers house during school hours and had lots of fun with the toys that belonged to the children of the house.. And even though they couldn't talk the same language, their friendship grew. When they removed their head gear they burst out laughing at how funny each other looked....but this didn't stop their friendship.




When the school bell rang to indicate that the children of the house were coming home, they had to part and were very sad to do so.

What a cool picture! I love the vibrant school colors. What a great shot to have the man in the window like that. Great stuff :)

I didn't vote in this challenge, but this would have got a high score from me. Probably over-saturated but it fits. So intriguing! Creative use of the door. While many of the solo door photos will soon be forgotten, this has impact.
