The light in the sky is really interesting. Very atmospheric and moody, with those silhouettes. The photo itself has a bit of noise (ironic?). Using Neatimage could sort it out.

It is a bit too noisey. Perhaps because you only used 45 kb of the 150 kb file size allowed. That and Neat Image would help!

Overall I really like the picture, the strong contrasts are attractive to the eye, too bad you could not have catptured a sunset, or clearer skies.
Good job =)

The title fits well :-/
I guess you've tried to brighten up what were very dark hills? Kudos for trying rather than just presenting a silhouette.
It's a good idea, and very difficult to pull off. The composition is good, but the noise & blown out sky take away from it. Good try.

Looks like a painting. Nice sky. Like the silhouette. Highlight of this pic for me is the subject and his placement, which is excellent. Nice photo - Inspzil

Difficult to focus on anything here. Perhaps a `fill flash` would have helped to bring something out in the forground to bring the eye forward. The sky is a bit overexposed. I like the idea you had here of the subject being alone.

It is a bit noisy :o) I think you have a nice opportunity here. The figure should be isolated more (it looks like there is maybe another person beyond the first). Maybe using a little lower perspective wouldn't cut the person in half and would help them stand out more (placing them against the sky). The sky also seems a little overexposed. Would it have been possible to expose it a little less? There seems to still be some detail in the person (not yet a true silhouette) so maybe you could have captured more color in the sky.

it is too noisey, i agree. i wonder why you submitted it. if you like the noise, then why the title. anyway. i like the composition with the person standing there gazing at the sky. the sky however is too blown out, and the foreground a little too dark for my preference. not knowing what camera and settings you used, and assuming that this is early morning or evening, i'm not sure what to suggest. i hear neatimage does wonders for noise (haven't tried it out yet myself). if you have a tripod, could you have tried to take the photo at a lower ISO setting with longer exposure? bracketing your shot may also give you a choice of different exposures to choose from. of course you may have already done that.

The noise adds to the mystique of the pic. Cool. 7.

Maybe a little, but the composition is interesting and I like the colors.

Great idea but it looks like a bit too much contrast or sharpening on editing. Cub

Interesting. I like the bright/dark contrast.

But the composition is pretty good. I like the human element, it creates depth and scale.

if it is too noisy, then use neat image to correct it. jgillard5
