Stripes

[DanOstergren]

I saw this wall by my friend's apartment and the stripes reminded me of a tank top that I got from the army surplus store in Portland. So I photographed them together. Not the most original idea, but I'm still happy with it. Lighting is all natural.

It works.

...And there's another vision trick/optical illusion, as you scroll (up and) down and look at his tank top it appears to flicker. ...Or is that just a combination of my eyes and senile dementia?

My vote is for senile dementia. ;]

Nice Dan, I like this one a lot, my only MINOR niggle is that I wish he was looking toward the empty space in the frame as opposed to away from it.

Thats a detail I never thought about. I was having him look that way because I preferred the way the light looked on his face when looking that direction, but it would have been a good idea to just make it so he was in the left side of the frame instead of the right. Thanks!
