I wish they'd used different colors, but I like the overall composition.effect. I can just see a HINT of detail in the head/face. If you wanted it there (and I like the effect) it could be a teeny bit lighter (at least per my monitor). If you wanted a complete silhouette, it needs to be a touch darker.
The girl is placed just right. Getting the rim of light around the back of her head was key, and you pulled it off. Great colors and exposure. Shame about the streetlight, but what can you do? High marks.
great silhouette and great colors. i like the real dark blacks here. my only suggestion would be to try this with the subject off to one side instead of centered, and maybe zoom out a tad to increase the off-center effect. i think it would add a lot to this shot. good job.
Now there's an interesting take on the people challenge. I actually thought I wouldn't like something like this because it's really not the person you see, but I do like it! The picture doesn't seem to be quite level, and the one fountain that seems to be coming straight out the girl's head (or going into it), was there a way of placing her so that it didn't look like that? Good shot anyway.
This is a beautiful photo... I love this silhouette against the colorful and soft water fountain in the background. The only improvement I could suggest here is to have framed it with less black space at the bottom of the frame. This possibly could have helped you capture the top of the fountains as well... Nice work !! = 9
Good color appeal, but the challenge was people. Your person is could have been substitued with a cardboard cutout. Great effect, but not for this challenge. Also, note the extranious lights in the background, the street light top center and the bar lights dead center distract from the shot. Move both you and subject to the right to avoid these lights. Photo 9 Creativity 8 People 5 total 6 (weighted most heavily on the people challenge, sorry for the low grade)
Great, great shot. Would be perfect if the contrast was a bit more so that I couldn't make out details on the face, but only the silhouette. Fantastic colors.
I love it! The silhouette is like a little doll, she almost doesn't seem real, and the garish colours of the fountain set that off in a nice, surreal way. Great job.
