I like the concept, to much foreground though, hides the silouhette a bit, have to look for it

i thought that too but i wasn't sure what to do about it. Do you think just further cropping would sort it out?

The crop definitely makes the silhouette stand out. Very nice shot and thanks for sharing.

Nice shot, but even a hard hat may not help at that site.

The crop puts more emphasis on the figure, it leads the eye to where you want it to go.
