Silhouette Attempt

[BryanPanting]

This was my first attempt at a silhouette shot, and just wanted to get some feedback on it. Any suggestions on how I could improve it next time I try, or any other critiques would be appreciated.

Hey, they both have knocked knees!

My point there is, pay attention to the details. Especially when there isn't much in the picture like with silhouettes.

Otherwise I think you did a nice job, it could be even a bit darker yet as there's a lot blown out...

I will also add, if you crop off the light dots, at the top, from the roof it removes a distraction my eyes keep floating to.

You might also try leveling the barn floor. Not sure you can do either of the other two horizontal lines....but I feel a slight lean to the right.

With that said, I like the shot. I can smell the chaff on the floor and feel the serenity of the morning....thanks for bringing back some memories.

i would have to agree with the post above, the light on the roof does distract you and brings your eyes away from the main subject.
BUT, on the other hand, this photo is gorgeous!

Thanks for the feedback that helps.

I did not even notice the knees before, but now its the fist thing I see.
