What I liked about this shot is the slight tilt of the shirt on the hanger.. It gives the photo "life" as it is not a dilibrate attempt to compose things to be stright, prim and proper...
Lovely.. a little contrast would be nice.. :)

I think this is one of the more emotionally hard hitting of all the images I have seen. It is hard to believe that someone who displayed and lived life with such zest and enjoyment is just gone. A husband, a father, and strong spoken spokesperson for the environment & wildlife whom you could not help but smile with - is gone. I look at this khaki shirt and am moved because many people loved him for who he was and what he did for the community at large. But what is really hard is too look at, is that empty shirt - his trademark Khaki shirt that he donned - now hangs there lifeless reminding us very deeply of the loss. R.I.P Steve Irwin. He will be missed.
