 Personaly, I love this image. Normaly I don't like silouetts, (Parden my spelling) but I just had to submit this one. The sky was so amazing last night I whent out up on a hill and walked along the street to find two men working on a house. I saw a chance and I took it. Here are the editing steps:

1) Using the magnetic lasoo tool, I selected just the two men and the house.
2) Then I took down the B/C just a LITTLE bit. Not enough to severly change the image
3) Then I deselected and bumped up the contrast of the whole image, just a LITTLE bit. Once again: Not enough to severly change the image.

I didn't do much with this one but I think it turned out great! Thanks in advance for all the votes! I wish there was a silouett challenge open now...

I like the silhouettes and I ma glad you left the power lines in. I think it adds positively to the shot.

would like it better without the line, and the whole thing feels very snapshotish

The power lines are the only thing distracting here. Good silhouette.
