This is a little too much like an underexposed snapshot. The water doesn't provide enough contrast from the models. The sun needed to be lower in the sky. The steep shoreline also forced a downward shot that caused the horizon to be a too high. If you could've lowered the camera to put more sky behind the models, the silhouette would have been enhanced.

The sky area could be gone and it would enhance the image. More yellow for the sand, would make me beleive this image. Very cool though, the subdued details in the people are terrific.

For me silhouette has to be totally black with sharp a d clear outlines. This is a nice shot but there is too much light on the models IMO.

should have cropped this shot, the guy on the left is very distracting....does not have a good pose, the gal on the right is a great pose. you could have cropped just the bottom right and gotten a solid two points higher and possibly been in shot for a ribbon

I would loose the sky, it has no function in this shot. Without the sky you create a more intimate scene.

Too much detail, meter the backround, increase two stops and try it again.
