This was one of my 10s this week... sorry to see that it didn't finish better... the person who commented about not seeing any people obviously didn't look at the photo... actually, i see that several people complained about not being able to see the person... well, i guess some don't appreciate the 'silhouette' as much as we do :) good job and better luck next time :)

Nice shot... an interesting sunset shot for a change, the silhouette works great.

I'd like to be there right now! How did you control/limit the amount of flare from the sun?
05/31/2002 07:17:00 AM
Nice sunset, but the silhouette is not very distinct. Overall, the picture is just too dark. Maybe use of exposure compensation would have helped.

Nice sunset and setting, would have liked to see a clearer profile in silohette.

I love sunset/sunrise pictures.
I love silhouette pictures.
I think I've just been sucker-punched.
This picture is awesome. I like the way the sun is reflected in the water, and the way the edge of the water curves. There is a little loss of detail at the bottom, it might have been cropped there.

Another dramatic sunset, yawn, and it does have a person in it. Ok, good.
05/29/2002 05:15:00 PM
Another strong contender.
05/29/2002 05:12:00 PM
Wish I was there...

interesting photo and when/if we do a shadow challenge, repeat this shot, but don't like it much as a people shot. (You really cannot see the subject, more like the lack of the subject, as in her shadow)
I really like this shot, just not so much for this challenge (IMO) Photo 9 Creativity 9 People 6 total 7

Very nice composition. This photo shows up really dark on my monitor. Not sure whether it's the monitor or your picture is truly that dark. If it is, it would be nice if you could lighten it a bit so that at least a hint of features is visible.
05/29/2002 11:36:00 AM
I wish I could see a few more details.
05/28/2002 10:18:00 PM
too dark for a good siloutte picture. would have been better if it was taken a little sooner.
05/28/2002 09:30:00 PM
beautiful. my second highest rating this challenge. parhaps a tad too dark, but i love the feeling the whole thing evokes. great shapes and shadows.
05/28/2002 03:47:00 PM
Nice sunset, but I would have like to have seen a little clearer person.
05/28/2002 12:26:00 PM
Great color, good use of shadows. The only thing I might have done differently was crop it a little lower, the horizon seems to cut almost thru the middle. Still a very good photograph.
05/28/2002 02:00:00 PM
Excellent capture... I have no complaints or suggestions on this photo... great shot! - 10
05/28/2002 08:59:00 AM
good sunset, though I'd show less sky/ have the horizon slightly higher ?
05/27/2002 08:35:00 PM
Just a little dark, but nice
05/27/2002 08:30:00 PM
Gorgeous! Nice lighting and silhouette effect.
05/27/2002 07:02:00 PM
How peaceful and beautiful. Great shot.
05/27/2002 02:06:00 PM
Kinda hard to make out the person in this one.
05/27/2002 01:38:00 PM
Wanna trade places with me? I live in Washington D.C..... Say yes. My bags are packed.
05/27/2002 01:24:00 PM
Nice sunset--but what or who is the silhouette?
05/27/2002 09:42:00 AM
so typical
05/27/2002 08:54:00 AM
a beautiful shot, but I don't see any people... sorry for the low score, but not on topic
05/27/2002 08:34:00 AM
Nice sunset, but the people are just barely perceptible. Maybe bring up the brightness...
05/27/2002 02:41:00 AM
Beautiful capture:)
