p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · My attempt at a silhouette / sunset shooting


I did a 'golden hour' sunset shoot a few days ago - and I wanted to experiment with shooting silhouettes, and into the sun like I see some photographers do.

I used to think that it just washed out the image, but I am starting to see the artistic value, so I wanted to practice shooting like that...

Here are a few pictures - please critique them! I am all ears to what I can improve on.

I like your 2nd and 3rd shots. First one doesn't do much for me.

for me (2) is the best if you can fix the halo on his head (should be an easy fix)

I wish his face was rotated towards us just a little in all three shots bring out the details of his lips and other subtle face features, similar to how hers stand out in #2.
