Ghosts by Dan Busta, a photographer based in Los Angeles, California, is a photo series that follows a ghost on his daily haunts. Although the concept should be terrifying, instead it is hilarious. This is due in large part to the fact that the ghost involves a white sheet costume that is reminiscent of last minute ideas for a child's Halloween outfit.
Whether out walking the dog or standing on a tombstone, Ghosts by Dan Busta is a fun photoshoot that would make many people chuckle. In a way, the main subject throws a different light on his (or her) surroundings. Although already mundane, they are given an even more average appeal since the ghost is so plainly odd. The backdrop and model are thus opposing forces.
