This is a photo I took from Montmartre's hill in Paris, France. I also
made
the quick drawing on paper showing a tyrannosaurus holding guns. :D
Thank you for the positive feedbacks!

on the rampage... but city dwellers have nothing to fear from this
pencil
drawn monster" (Kerry McQueeney, The Daily Mail, Sept. 2011)
Update: See THIS VIDEO showing some 18 Pencil Vs Camera
images in progress (with a small animation and original music).

Hi
A poem by Peter S. Quinn
I had to shoot my way out
Because people were getting rough
They say I move too much about
Like a gangster getting tough
I only wanted some France food
But they said I wasn't polite
They thought my attitude was rude
And eating folks caused a fright
I know I’m only a little dinosaur
And I’m merely a tourist here
My clumsiness is in peace not war
And we ruled once everywhere
***
All I am saying
Is give dinosaur a chance
The little fellow is just playing
He wants to see you dance
He’s much for the rumba beat
And wants to see you all hop
He’s got the guns and big feet
So dance, dance on - don't stop!
Much talk is about his robbery
But he only stole some apples
He needs to have foods for free
So he can do more wiggles
***
They say I’m a mere joke
A Ben Heine’s pencil stroke
That might not be telling a lie
Though I have a different alibi
I was sent from gangster’s dinosaur
Since their town isn’t safe anymore
They are attempting to come back
Through a time machine walk
This is just the beginning of the end
I’m the 1st one to Earth send
The guns are just extra kick
Next comes my fiancé Ms Dinosaur
limONeti, jean-fabien, and 698 other people added this photo to their favorites.

i've been in love with this photo for a really long time, but yesterday, while shopping at forever 21, i saw it on a shirt in the men's section.
i'm hoping they got your permission. your "pencil vs camera" series is brilliant and deserves credit!

As if a dinosaur in the city wasn't bad enough it has a gun.

I bought a shirt from a Forever 21 that had that very first dinosaur image on it (only altered to not include guns). Did you sell the design to them?
