Nice shot! Although the value is so deep that the subject's features are a little hard to make out

Really dark. At first I thought the photographer was another rock in the water. There is also a visible tilt that could be easily corrected.

This is a cool shot but very hard to see on my monitor. I may need to adjust my brightness.

Im not sure how this fits the challenge. If there is a photographer in this shot, I can't see him.

I like this photo - the lengths photographers will go to to get the shot!

The photographer is too dark IMO.

A bit too much contrast. Excellent idea, but the face is too dark.

I don't know if it's my monitor but the photographer and the camera are too dark to see any detail.

I think I can make out the shooter on the island. To dark, lacks detail 3

Either not quite enough light on photographer's face or not enough contrast with the trees/water to make the silhoutte work.

The image is too dark. I think it would have worked better if there was a lighter background behind the photog

Almost too dark for me.

The shadows appear very dark and the highlights are very blown. Whether on purpose or not, the detail has been lost in the picture.

The subject is amazing but the photo is very dark on the face and therefore does not bring the eye to this point

It's a little dark, almost gave you a DNMC.
