This was one of my first tries at Silhoutted photos and first tries and taking photos of random people. And also my first dab at using a UV Filter. I didn\'t do much editing although I might consider doing more later.
Editing:
Added Contrast
Added Some blue

This photo is quite dart and although the title is silhoutted fisherman - you reall don't see him too clearly. The silhoutted trees overwhelm the photo.
The position of the boat in the frame is good however could possibly be a little bit lower. Separation of the boat from the background would help as well. This would require a higher vantage point on the part of the photographer.
One last thing, the horizon is tilted slightly to the left. Not enough to be intentional (IMO) and is therefore distracting.
The tilted horizon is a little distracting for me, and I wish there was more clarity/detail on the silhouette. The sky came out well and the clouds look very nice. I like the birds in flight.
This is a great start, but I think the boat and the water need more contrast to really make the silhouette of the fisherman "pop" out at us. The shoreline is too close to his head and he almost blends in. Horizon line is tilted up to the right. The sky could use some contrast and saturation adjustments as well. Good luck in the challenge. :)
