Flanked by paleontologists Alexander Kellner, top, and Diogenes Campos, a life-size illustration of the toothless Pterosaurus Tupuxuara lights up a quarry wall in Brazil’s Araripe Plateau region. Pterosaur remains have been found in deposits above and below the white gypsum layer that served as photographer Jonathan Blair’s projection screen for this shot.
