 Last minute entry - I'm sure I'll pay for it again - LOL!

Set up screen with light behind it and set timer on camera, ran behind the screen and posed so that it would capture my shadow (about 50 times). I thought this one was the most interesting.

Great simplicity, composition, and colors. I love the way the light graduates smoothly from yellow to orange. Very nice!

I gave this a 10. I loved the crisp outlines, graphic qualities and warm colors. Nice work.

I'm really surprised this didn't score better. I doubt it was an easy shot to get this clear and the lines all straight. I really like the contrasts the the strong form and lines made by the backdrop and shadow.

This is an interesting shot with appeal, which is refreshing for this challenge, but it appears to be a silhouette and not a shadow.

Interesting color here, I really like the almost perfect silhouette and the lines. Well done.

Great colors and lines here. The shadow (silhouette?) is very crisp and well defined. Well done.

This looks almost computer-generated; the edges of the model and window are way too sharp, and the colour seems to expand too precisely.

You look like a rapper flashing the "Westside" sign or somethin narly like that. Cool picture, really nice.. Could have smoothed the "shadow" with photoshop a little more. I give this bad boy a 9.

This is a very attractive image. Sadly though, it appears to be a silhouette rather than a shadow.

Excellent concept with great color. My only tiny complaint is that it seems oversharpened which is making the lines look pixilated. This does not change my rating which is 10.

a sillhouette is not a shadow

More of a silhouette than a shadow but I still like it so I gave it a 6 even though I think you are on gray area regarding meeting the challenge :)

Sorry if I'm off here but this looks more like a silhouette than a shadow. And perhaps a bit oversharpened. Nicely composed though and good color.
