The fight against herself!

A very interesting idea well executed. I like how close the left fists come together. It would look more like a direct conflict if the eye contact was more pronounced. In the present form it looks like a 'fight against an invisible contrahent' - but it may be that exactly this fits the topic 'fight against oneself'? Anyway a great picture!

That's a good one. I have done this before with my grandkids, and I will try this "fight" scheme. The grandkids have done "ghost" pictures and "twin" pictures.

Looks great! As Heinz has commented above, possibly eye-contact or an angled face would look even more dramatic. Did you have test shots for this? Or preset location markings or such?

No markings just looked exactly the first position on the ground glass and then switched to the other side! And not all are like this 50% was for the trash!Cheers Armin

Really like this... question, did you simply use strobes to expose, or hot lights? The reason I ask is it looks like in the left side there are trails like there was a subtle light illuminating the subject, but that could just be a very interesting backdrop, but if you closed the shutter between takes, then you wouldn't get the trails.

Hi StoneNYCI used strobes and a shutter on my 4x5 inch portrait camera and yes the backdrop has some knitters and is not just flat!Cheers Armin
