Self portrait. I brought a bunch of my stuff to this place a mile and a half away to get some shots for the challenge - this was actually a focus/composition test shot, the rest of them were with my bike and my film camera and telephoto, and in different spots. I liked this one because it wouldn't take spot editing to make it a real silhouette, and I like the composition.
Hoping it scores over my avg. vote.
Editing: Increased contrast, desaturated and darkened shadows in ACR, curves, sharpen, resize, border.

Wow, nice. Very dark and bold. I can kinda see features on the boy and, although they add to the image, I don't know if their adding to the image takes away from the qualifications of a silhouette.... I do like the image, though
