fantastic shot!!!

I could certainly post a fair few of my attempts at this sort of image--all fall (no pun intended) far short of this. So, on second thought, I won't post em. I'm not crazy (as far as you know).

I'd say you were robbed. Wallhanger.

PostLuminous Award Nominee!
beautiful backlighting, wonderfully composed, nicely converted to b/w, and the specular highlights as bokeh add such a nice element to this image

Very effective combination of reverse light and shapes. And great balance of definition and bokeh.

How this doesn't end up on the front page is beyond me, easily one of the best!

Very nice.
Interesting seeing this as a B&W. I like it.

Excellent use of b/w to give this impact. A fave.

simply beautiful. Kudos for making it b/w

I think the black and white really takes away from you photo, but I guess its all about perspective. It seems like this is frontlit, not backlit, but....

i personally felt this one should ribbon.

I like that you changed this to B&W. It's gorgeous.

Very nice. I think the lighting in this phto is perfect. I almost wish there as a tad more contrast between the black and white portions.

Incredibly dramatic and dynamic.
