I like how it is almost like he is looking up at the light source. Interesting choice to use black and white. The water splashing and the fact that it is really hot here right now makes me want to think summery, but the black and white doesnt support that very well. I think I'm tempted to want the female over his shoulder to be less in the shadows also. It's a good capture of a fountain.

Hello from the Critique Club!

I really like the dramatic effect of the colors in your photo. I even like the border around it.

When I think of sillhouette, I don't think of something like steam, but I think it works okay here. The inclusion of the trees frames it very nicely. Your use of neat image helps the colors and the photo. I think the highlighting of the golden sun around the steam and clouds is what makes this image so strong. Whatever editing of levels you did worked to bring that out perfectly.

I don't recall how this one ended up doing in the challenge, but I like it alot. Good job!

I hope you find this critque to be helpful.

Interesting colours in sky. Not sure about the placement of the sun in the shot, I'd prefer it on one of the thirds junctions. I'd like to see a sharper foreground. Dramatic mood though.
