Great work congrats !!

Yes it is,and ave been to different events and taken photos of people and sent them on e-mail and been thanked for it,and what that does is getting to meet different people,thats what I love about photography and also I think gives you the insight to different aspects of live.

Good for you,i had a similar thing just before Christmas taking photos of a live band,and they are going to use them

Ingenious +++++

I like the way the textured rocks and foliage on left side of same colour as rocks hug these stairs. Going down is a refreshing look a refreshing POV.

Congrats Skyangel

Congratulations!

It's a great path, and the location is also great. But for some reason a stair photographed down like this doesn't work for me. probably because it's losing depth i presume.

And you've read them all, I hope.

Excellent choice for the 2 visible titles, I wonder what the other 2 are?

Congrats Skyangel

Congrats for this one,clever shot

30 times.....ha ha ha....it was well worth it! CONGRATS

very nice natural feel to this post.

Cliche but well done and no dust spots on the sky. Nice one.

An empty path but the sign hold the visual weight !

Hi,

Here are my few thoughts on your image and post processing.

You mention that you wanted to achieve a silhouette against a nice sunset and you succeeded.

The time for silhouettes is morning light or setting sun light. You did a good job of cloning out the shadows that your hood created, however, it gave a vignette type of look which wasn’t all that bad but it wasn’t what you were gunning for.

The clone job nicely done, although you have some still showing through. If you try varying opacity layers as you clone you can further eliminate that without the telltale signs of cloning showing through.

Horizon is now straight. Details in shadows are more easily recovered when an image is underexposed, so when in doubt shoot underexposed rather than over. RAW or not RAW.

I like your image because the silhouette gives emotion or rather mood…you are a romantic at heart. Overall the image is a bit busy, following the KISS principle seems to work better for silhouettes…a strong dark focal point…uncluttered. My two cents worth.

your welcome,shame we could not see it as well

Congrats on 2nd skyangel

Congrats skyangel. I knew this would win.

Think the sign gives this a bit of character
