Hello, an interesting illusion here in your photo. You say it is a simple image but not so simple at the same time. Good vertical photo of a man half obscured and half seen. Presenting us with a duality, a consciousness and unconsciousness and a metaphysical awareness seen and unseen.
Thanks for a most interesting art image,
Karen

Hello Mehran,
this is a very interesting picture, a very creative approach to a portrait, it makes you pay closer attention to the subject, rely only on a few details and contribute the rest by yourself. You give a creative role to the viewer and make them think. The impact of the one-eye glance is very powerful, your composition is brilliant. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a great weekend,
Ourania
