I took this shot while Aimee and the rest of our Nicaraguan missionary team were headed through security around 4:45am Saturday morning to catch their plane at the Columbus airport. Aidan and Rowan were having a blast going up and down the escalators. I didn't shoot this with this challenge in mind. I just like taking pics of my kids. When I got home and started editing I thought that these would work well for this challenge. The fact that Aidan was wearing a striped shirt was just a bonus.
Certainly recognizable, this image probably wont score great - but I really like it and I get to enter another image of my boy. And the title came to me last minute. I think its funny. I had originally just titled it "diagonals" but thought this might get more of a chuckle. Let's see who figures it out - if anyone really cares.
Guesstimate score - 5.7

Not sure what it is, but this one speaks to me. I'm not crazy about the play on words in the name....catchy, descriptive, but does not connect with the content. Love the composition! Delivery in black and white adds to the dramatic undertones.
