Galloping bareback? I'm impressed. anyway I'm sure you'll get knocked by other because there's still some detail in the horse/girl. I think it's still clearly in the spriit of the challenge, and is a great image. I might have cropped it so that there was a little more space in front of the horse. movement can be blocked by centre crops like this sometimes. love the catchlights in the mane/tail/hair. a little burning of the sky might bring some detail back in the blown out parts of the trees too (but that's nit-picking i know). She will love this one when she's older :)

Ant Silhouette

the shallow depth doesn't help here. i like the idea, and the angle in nice...it leads through the frame well. smaller aperture would add depth, and darker the silhoueete a little too. :)

I'd level the horizon a little (i know others hve probably said it already, but they're right) and maybe play with the levels a little to enhance the silhouettes. i love the haze, and the colours are very nice. border is a little on the intrusive side.
good luck,
Pedro

I'm going to go out on a limb and call this a top 10 shot. great idea, and it's executed well. a little forced, but still a great idea.

Copycat

Comment:
superb. i love this. I'm sure the anal-ysts will knock you for the reflections on the cat, but who cares? still a silhouette, and still a fabulous shot. I might burn the highlights a little (just the blown our reflections on the cat, plus whatever is over the horse's head). very well done.

an alternative thought?



no offense; just a different perspective.

I disagree with the comments below that don't like the headroom - i think it adds to the impact. I do agree that going 100% black would have been preferable. very nice shot.

you're becoming famous Manny; everyone recognises you now. :)

congratulations on another beautiful portrait. the colour in this one is a little more desaturated than many of your others...nice effect.
