Silhouette at sunset

[scratchy_muffin]

Taking my car out for a bit of a refresher section and headed down to the beach. For those that don't know, there's a massive art exhibition on the beach just north of Liverpool, with 100s of statues planted in the sand.

My main issue with this picture is the lighting - I personally like it, but because of hiding the sun behind him the eye is maybe drawn to the head, regardless of where you look. Maybe this is a good thing, I dont really know

Anyway, any feedback about that, or anything in general would be fantastic, thank you

Good shot.

I personally prefer to leave the subjects relatively small in my silhouettes and give the viewer the idea of the vastness of the environment/beach.

I strongly agree with Ash!
