The discussion revolves around identifying individuals in a series of photos, with a focus on Seth Shostak. Participants initially speculate whether all images depict the same person, with some noting differences in features like the nose, suggesting that makeup and camera angles might influence perceptions. It is confirmed that not all images are of Shostak, with Richard Dawkins identified in one of the photos. The conversation shifts to requesting names for each individual in the remaining pictures, indicating a desire for clarity and further identification.

All are Seth Soshtak? I know the last one is, and probably the first one, too.
 
No :smile:
 
What? C'mon, the last photo is Soshtak's.

That's better. :biggrin:
 
Are all those photos of the same person? It could be just the make-up and camera angles and effects of aging, but the nose looks different on some of them from others.

Edit: Never mind...you already answered.
 
They arent all the same person.
 
The third from the left is Richard Dawkins. The original photo can be found here.
