Challenge: Sil or Shadowcast? The very question will hurt this image, although technically a sil, in the 'purist's' minds, this will cost you.
Composition: There is an uneven lighting top to bottom that causes some distraction and lends a yellowish cast to part of the image.
Concept: Fails on interest level, but does not hurt or help the overall.

This is actually a shadow rather than a silhouette. I would suggest adding some other element, as it is right now - there isn't a whole lot to look at. The bricks provide texture and color - but that's about it.

This would be a shadow, not a silouette I'm afraid. Sorry!

I think I silhouette is a figure that is blackened from the light not a shadow. Nice shadow though.

Nice picture, I am afraid that this may not do well as the scene is not strictly a silhouette!

Sorry, it's a shadow. The subject is supposed to be backlit, not the photographer. 3

This isn't a silhouette, it's a shadow. . . two very different concepts.
