Description
Gary Larson created the "Far Side" comic strip in 1980, and it was wildly popular until he discontinued it in 1994. Your challenge is to use your photographic skills to emulate Gary's work. His captions were usually central to the concepts he was exploring, so titling/captioning may be critical here. To see samples of Gary's work, use Google Images and search "Gary Larson Far Side".

Here's the first one from 2006: Far Side Challenge

SC, please fix my title. I misspelled his name. Larson... not Larsen. *sigh*
