I keep coming back to this because it makes me smile. Good choice of color , the green is vibrant without being sickly. Next time you can try putting something in front of the subject as a reflector (a white piece of cardboard, or even a cookiesheet wrapped in tinfoilf) to bring out more detail in your silhouette. Great job!

I like the concept and the green lighting, but the subject is just too dark in my opinion and there is very little detail.

the subject must not become a silhouette because of the backlighting...

Except fpr the hands (and the backlight itself) I see only silhouette. Maybe it's my monitor but all else is black. Minimally meets the challenge.

did not follow the rules, subject can not be a silhouette.

A little too much silouhette, and that was the main part of the challenge. There should not be a silouhette. I like the colored light and that does work well with the title, but meeting the challenge does rank higher with me.

Nicely done. Should have leaned the head and shoulders a bit more into the picture though. That green light on the hands saves it from being just a silhouette.

Superb hulk-like look. The green lighting is perfect. Althought there is "some" detail in the face/chest - it is so close to being a silhouette - some will point to the challenge descrition.

too much silhouetting, doesn't meet the challenge parameters

When detail is lost, it becomes a silhouette, and doesn't meet the challenge

Nice effort. I am afraid most voters will say "Silhouette"....
Me included...

I like the picture and the colours. The instructions said clearly though, that you mustn't make it a silluette. I'll pull it up a bit because I like the pic anyway
