This was tough to set this up and get it right. I played with clones in the expert editing, and wanted to do it again in Advanced. But I knew I could only use one exposure. So I took my Cokin filters and blocked off half of the frame with the filters. Then I set the timer for 40 seconds and had the wife hit the start button after I got into position. After three seconds she covered the frame with some black cloth and I jumped up and turned my hat around, flopped the filters to the other side and got into the second position. With three seconds left she uncovered the frame again.

It was fun to do, I just hope it does well with the voters!

Go Padres! First Place baby!!!

nice idea and execution, except for the shadow on the left you and the blurred arm of the right

the lighting is uneven but, you did a nice job of capturing the moment. When a shot has so little color to work with I often consider converting to b/w or sepia
