Great use of the shadow to impart the silhoutte feel. The brick texture as it plays in light and shadow is just nice to look at. Bump.

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.

this is a shadow, not a silohuette, but you probably got this comment before.

This is more of a shadow. I think the challenge was to deal with a back lit object.

This is a shadow on a wall but not a silhouette photo, so it doesn't meet the challenge in my opinion. Nice shot though!

Interesting composition. IMHO shadows don't count as silhouettes. But you've managed to capture a nice clear image here.

I don't think a shadow and a silhouette are synonymous

IMO, does not meet definition of a silhouette. This is a static and frankly uninteresting photo. Wish I could be more help.

In my opinion, shadows are not silhouetts, they are shadows. You can get the same shot in a silhouette, just use a light and a sheet. Try it again.
