As noted elsewhere, the inspiration for this whole, nine poster series, came from the line "some decisions are irrovocable." After that it turned into this whole production: what should the characters wear? What do they carry? Smoke! I need to photographs smoke - so I did. And fire! In the center, the woman operative has that lean to her left, while in the last the male operative is leaning back, both of them apparently pivoting while bringing their weapons to bear. Those poses are actual poses, not exactly fake, but - call it augmented? In both, they were leaning back while holding on to a length of rope, tied to the wall and out of frame. This allowed for the leg-up and weight out-of-line stance that you just can't do otherwise. I thought it was pretty neat. Also, the hem of the woman's skirt is billowy - because a fan was blowing on it.
