Had some fun experimenting with lighting on this one. Two lights are pointed to the backdrop (red muslin) & none on the subjects. This may get low marks for the wrinkles in the drop, but I didn't have any red paper large enough for two subjects.

Processing - RAW conversion, Crop, Levels, Color Balance & increased saturation on the reds, resize for web

Good idea, but he looks like he is smiling/laughing at her. I like the red color background.

Challenge concept: Unique. Execution: Hurt strongly by wrinkled sheet. Ultimately shadows cast on colored foreground. Interest Level: little

good poses and expressions. wrinkles in backdrop distract a bit.

I like the silhouettes, and the color really adds to the feeling of anger and argument. It could work a little better if the woman's hand was up higher to be more seperate from the man, and if the man had more of an angry look.
