It looks exactly like the one he wore the day he posed for a photo with my daughter and wife (his hands were on their shoulders in the photo I have of them together). Perhaps it is his favorite summer shirt.

She is a right wing liar...no way Franken groped this right wing person with her husband Demsrule86 Nov 2017 #39

It doesn't matter because what's depicted in the photo isn't at issue. The Velveteen Ocelot Nov 2017 #3

I agree Angry Dragon Nov 2017 #5

Of course it matters njhoneybadger Nov 2017 #60

You can't draw any definitive conclusions from a 72dpi image. Demit Nov 2017 #12

True. If you blow this image up in Photoshop to 1200% it is also obviously very compressed. L. Coyote Nov 2017 #43

What looks odd Meowmee Nov 2017 #13

I agree. They seem to be floating is space. jalan48 Nov 2017 #14

In the close-up picture the white triangles look like cloth that has a ripple in it. A Brand New World Nov 2017 #20

Yes it could be a piece of cloth Meowmee Nov 2017 #32

Agreed. Very obvious when blown up to 1200%. L. Coyote Nov 2017 #44

I havent blown it up Meowmee Nov 2017 #81

To me, the right side of Frankens body seems to be missing (his right) Compared to the left side anneboleyn Nov 2017 #69

There is a reflection in the window behind them of what appears to be an arm (presumably hers?) LisaL Nov 2017 #17

Looking at it some more, looks like an arm around his waist? LisaL Nov 2017 #23

No arm. There is a light and shadow line in the reflection which is missing on the door itself. L. Coyote Nov 2017 #45

I am talking about the window behind them, not the door. LisaL Nov 2017 #46

The photgrapher's eye level is just higher than his, three siding lines in reflection. L. Coyote Nov 2017 #49

Given that you don't know the distances or the angles, or where the photographer was, LisaL Nov 2017 #51

We do know the distances and angles and where the photographer was, as revealed by the photo. L. Coyote Nov 2017 #59

Standing right next to a window reflected in the background, their heads missing in the reflection. L. Coyote Nov 2017 #47

But I see what appears to be an arm and a back reflected in there. LisaL Nov 2017 #50

An arm? B2G Nov 2017 #54

There are a whole bunch of things that are reflected in the window, how do you not see LisaL Nov 2017 #55
