Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

For my daughter Rachel's birthday I simply HAD to do a Photoshop manipulation of the movie poster "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" with her in the leading role and our dog Zoe photobombing the scene! This new installment in the world of magic by Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling stars Eddie Redmayne as 'magizoologist' Newt Scamander and Johnny Depp as notorious dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald. But here I made Rachel the main protagonist, as she recently started a Ph.D. in zoology and soon will continue her field study of lizards on the Greek Cyclades Islands. She is a wizzard when it comes to catching and examining these shy little creatures in the outdoors!

In my first collage you can see her original backpack with a few lizards crawling about and the Greek flag in the background. The original poster (below) sports Eddie Redmayne in the center, but also here I couldn't resist exchanging Newt's girlfriend Tina Goldstein with Rachel's face and adding some other 'artifacts' of our own favorite magizoologist!
