My husband standing out by the pond at dusk during our weekend getaway. Calm, relaxing and peaceful. I would've said quiet too but I'd be lying because there were some really loud bullfrogs out there keeping us company. :-)

Pretty basic editing:
-Levels adjustment
-Curves adjustment
-up'ed the saturation a bit
-Unsharp Mask
-neatimaged to get rid of the noise from the higher ISO and levels adjustment
-resized & SFW

I like the way his shape merges into the shapes of the trees and their reflections. In fact, he stands out mostly because his "reflection" doesn't match his "tree." 7

What a lovely evening sky! There's a lot I like about this image, but the legs for some reason bother me. I think it's because the torso is bisected by the treeline. And the body also bisects the image. Maybe try some different crops - taking a bunch off the right side would (IMO) create a much more interesting composition right off the bat. I'm also wondering how a seated pose would have worked silhoutted against the water rather than the sky...

Interesting the way you fit the man into the landscape.

I like the silhouette, but believe it would maybe be better if the man wasn't centered in the photo.
