Had an idea to move away from the scenery shots and try for more designed silhouette,
A model set on a coffee table and a tungsten spot set on the floor with the light shining into the sails to catch the silhouette of the masts and sheet ropes behind, when I first looked at the image thought that it looked like the title.

update : I think too much details are visible in the way the object is not a silhoutte anymore. It is not a bad image (it's very good, by the way!), i just think i doesnt fits the challenge fully.
A very good photograph but I find myself asking, "is this silhouette or a very well backlit photograph". I must say, with this much detail within the subject, I find it to be more of a backlit technique than silhouette. However you did a very good job technically.
