Happy Thanksgiving

Tonight we have no Magic Tonight. It's thanksgiving weekend here in Canada and my mother (who wields magical powers that rival my own) has refuted my presence at a family dinner, so for those that were itching to get out to see a magic show tonight, you'll have to wait till next week. Thursday night at the Franklin House we had a sold out show with my delightful special guest, Ben Train. Rather than share the photos of that performance, I'll share one photo which has become the subject of a fun little Facebook contest:

I pointed out that Mr. Train resembled The Emperor from Star Wars:

This prompted Ben to start a contest to see who could accomplish the best photoshoppery along this theme. Here are the results so far:

We have no idea when the contest closes or how the winner will be judged, but feel free to send submissions to Ben@bentrain.ca.

Of course, if you want to work with a more attractive subject, you can work with Ben's normal photos:

Magic Tonight will be back next week. Readers of this blog can use the code reality for a discount on the price of tickets and dinner when purchasing online.
