 Levelled, Curved, Channel mixed to monochrome then cropped and resized for the challenge.

It's my own back, and tell you what it's a sod trying to get a G5 to focus in the right place whilst crouched on the floor also trying to get the remote to fire the shutter.

I've probably got too close to a silouette for some people. But what the hey!

Yes! I didn't enter in the end, but I was sooo tempted to take a back light photo.. :-). And you've captured a back-lit back light. Clever pose, B&W + noise/grain give this a nice artsy feel. 7
