The Man in the Garage

I was pulling my curtains closed the other night when I saw what seemed like a man standing in his garage, with his arms folded in front of him. I looked at him for a brief moment, wondering “why is he just standing there like that?” I have an A.I. image to the right above, showing what I thought I was seeing in the photograph on the left. Were my eyes playing tricks on me? Or can see why I might have thought it was a man standing there?

Sure enough, when I zoomed in on my photo and lightened it on my iPhone, I could see that it wasn’t a man at all. As you can see below, it’s just a pile of of boxes. But the small box on top, in relation to the size of the box below, certainly has proportions similar to a head on a torso. And it was the open box flap that – in the dark – looked like folded arms in front of a chest.
