Don't do these often maybe I should.
Feel free to post your own ones

Nice shapes - looks like a great place. I'm fascinated to know where it it and what the old looking building is on the left hand island.

Here is one from Lake Tahoe, California/Nevada, USA. This fresh water pristine lake is situated at
6225 feet or 1897 Meters altitude in Sierra Nevada Mountains on eastern side of California. We
were on the eastern side of Emerald Bay looking West and to your left at an angle is the south and
most of the lake. It is one of the beautiful lakes of the world in my opinion. But I could be biased.

The small isle you see is a very popular wedding destination. On our trip we saw two weddings taking
place at the each end of that small isle.
I did not take the silhouette shot as a plan but the low light underexposed image lent well to tweaking,
I hope.

Very nice to both.

Both very neat, guys. : )

Sury, I might have preferred the silhouette to be closer to the left of the frame than the center... It feels to be to boldly placed and taking some precious space away from the scene that he's enjoying there...

Just my thoughts...

Thanks for sharing,

Yildiz,
I see what you mean and yes it does make sense. By Capturing some of the scenery that
the subject is also enjoying the image is enhanced. I guess had I remembered the rule of thirds,
it would have helped.

I will keep that in mind next time.

with best regards,
Sury

Nice shots! I appreciate the skill of that last one. A couple from me. I

This is an 'Iron Man' - one of 100 sculptures set in the sand at Crosby, Liverpool and by the famous sculpture Anthony Gormley. They are all casts of himself - as are most of his works.

This is my husband - trying out his new A77 at Southport beach.

Very nice shots, Pat. The second one is more life like and the background is great in both of them.

bit of an oldie this, A700 and lens I cant remember! Not so much a silhouette but edited to be one. Can't remember exactly how I did it, mind.

"Another Place" again! Nice. Looks like you were a little further north than me. It looked a bit 'slutchier' there last time I went.
