travel far away the planet, the other one stay on earth just watching

the images will come from space with a "minor frequency", and the time
dilation will be apparent, the images appears like slow motion, and
when the remote twin arrives his destiny, on earth we will see him yet
more young than the staying one...and vice versa...
     At the way back, the rocket accelerate toward earth, the signals
increase its frequency, the images will apear like "mutes
movies"...till the arrive, wherein finally the two brothers gather
with the same age....
    There is no paradox...(but Im afraid Iam provoking some well
established ideas, or prejudices, so...)
    I wonder what could be wrong with that solution...without
previewed concepts...

<<It is fundamentally misguided to exercise such epistemological
concerns within the framework of special relativity, because
special relativity was always a provisional theory with recognized
epistemological short-comings. As mentioned above, one of
Einstein's two main two reasons for abandoning special
relativity as a suitable framework for physics was the fact
that, no less than Newtonian mechanics, special relativity
is based on the unjustified and epistemologically problematical
assumption of a preferred class of reference frames, precisely
the issue raised by the twins paradox. Today the "special theory"
exists only (aside from its historical importance) as a convenient
set of widely applicable formulas for important limiting cases
of the general theory, but the phenomenological justification
for those formulas can only be found in the general theory. >>
