 I had much grander ideas and it came down to time.
The coolest part of this whole thing is that is my 17 year old sons hand around my throat. That part worked very nicely.

The standing people are well lit and look decently edited together, but the background and person sitting look inconsistent compared to the others in the scene. The skin tone is more brown/tan than the reddish tint in the standing, and the lighting is overly dull in comparison.
the shadow on the base of the chair also looks to awkward on the floor.

good idea in the internal conflict, but a few things do take away from the image overall.

Nice effort. Some shading would have increased the illusion of them actually being together. But what is that black horizontal line across the back, and why is the therapist so green...???

good job on the concept and lighting it all fits together. However I would have liked to have seen the picture 'grounded' with a floor
