The point is that a silhouette does not show any detail, it should only show the shape, the outline.
What you have here is a photo that is too dark (i.e. underexposed) for a "normal" subject, yet has too much detail to be called a silhouette.
If you were to underexpose this even further, you would then actually HAVE a silhouette, and a pretty interesting one at that! |

Thanks for the insight LoveSpuds. Interesting how you think a little more underexposure would do the trick while others say the image is allready underexposed...**shrug** whats a guy to do?
Anyway, I didnt go out of my way to take this shot, it seemed to fit a silhouette (at least I thought it did) and figured it would work as a 1st challenge for me to get my feet wet and see how the whole voting process etc works. |

A nice attempt, but for me the image is very flat. You have a nice, interesting silhouette, but I think you could do with underexposing the shot by another stop or so to get the silhouette darker, and that might hopefully bring out a little more colour in the sky. |

Cannot find any silhouettes here. It seems more an underexposed subject than a silhouette. |
