Awesome stuff.....I had a similiar idea in mind for this challenge. A cowboy on a horse silhouetted in sunset...but the cowboys couldn't pull their fingers out in time...dammit. So I am so pleased that your image got the ribbon...beautiful.

Great shot Sir Baz, and the fact you took a photo like this despite being a Melbourne city boy like me shows the depth of your vision. The shot is perfectly executed too. Another blue with the Pentax *ist is just the icing on the cake. Congrarulations!Message edited by author 2006-02-20 15:18:18.

Congratulations on your blue with this great use of the silhoutte to blow the competition away and believe me there are a lot of good images in this challenge. Your idea to go with this strong silhoutte was indeed a stroke of great imagination. Very nice work!

Sometimes it's the little details that make a shot.. like the overall strap and the piece of straw sticking out of his mouth. A lovely silhouette. Well done!

This shot lacks dynamics to match the title. It looks very static and set-up. Otherwise a nice silhouette.
