Sooo many dichotomies here ...

I really like the choice of subject and the contrasts between the two people, as well as the B&W treatment. And the backwards clothes add a nice touch of humor.

Nice job!

'...drew their swords and shot each other...' I was thinking of that old poem just the other day. Imagine that! Bizarre photo - I got your back. I mean front. I mean, oh what the heck: 10!
