How do the twins have lived life in a half-century. Beijing photographer Gao Rongguo created a series of poignant photographs of twins, which for more than fifty years. Through its fotoprekta Gao wanted to understand the mysteries of astrology: why two people born in the same time with the same DNA, eventually becoming completely totally different personalities and have a completely different destiny.

Rongguo Gao grew up in Shandong Province (China). During his tenure, he made a lot of traveling and have seen different people. During his trips, he sometimes paid attention to the people - twins who nestotrya that were essentially very similar, still different from each other.

Then the photographer thought about why people with age less and less alike.

For this project Rongguo Gao returned to his native province of Shandong to find doubles over 50 years of age and photograph them so that they were facing each other, as if they were admiring its own reflection.

The photographer chose people over fifty years old, because, as he explains, "fifty years people often know their fate».

He says the photographer, such a dissimilarity of twins can be caused by many factors. Once a person starts to live an independent life, he lives every day of her individual way. It affects and psychological circumstances and domestic and social.

While it is clear that the twin sometimes differ from each other slightly, sometimes the difference is more obvious. Nevertheless, the differences between them give us an opportunity to reflect on the human destiny.
