I came back to see how this had done and just had to say something about the "silhouette" comments. On my monitor, it is not a silhouette. I think some people may need to adjust their monitors. If you can't see the full range on the bar at the bottom of the screen when voting (and a distinct line between each shade) then you need to make some adjustments.

An excellent scenic. Althought not a total silhouette - it does come close to losing all detail in many areas. The rock (?) in the bottom left corner is a bit awkward.

Nice shot but the horizon should be level!

The subject is a bit too dark for me. Borders on being a silhouette because of the backlighting...

Nice shot. Shooting directly into the sunset created more of a silouette rather than backlighting, unfortunately.

Cropping out the bottom left would have made this better... 6

Too many distractions.

Very nice picture. Subject is fine. Comp is fine. Focus, DOF, colors and levels are fine. But on my monitor, all I see of the subject is silhouette -- therefore doesn't meet challenge.

did not follow rules, subject can not be a silhouette.

Nice image but you need to place the horse a little further left to give it somewhere to ride into.

The rules call for no silouettes!

Beautiful silhouette!
09/09/2004 02:35:05 PM
Very beautiful and serene, but it doesn't meet the challenge (no silhouettes!).
09/08/2004 11:26:42 PM
wish you would have cropped whatever is in the lower left corner
09/08/2004 08:57:44 PM
nice silhouette.

Cropped a bit tighter and ya got a ribbon

Great image just spoilt by the litter and the object in the bottom left corner
09/08/2004 01:36:25 AM
I love the pic, but it doesn't seem to fit the no silhouette part of the challenge
09/08/2004 12:51:19 AM
Crooked horizon, and dangerously close to a silhouette. What's that shape on the bottom left?
09/08/2004 12:27:46 AM
Beautiful picture but ... the subject must not become a silhouette because of the backlighting. My 5 would be much higher if it had not been a silhouette. It is a great shot.
