Interesting shot. I like the way the light filters through the "kite", but also the outline of the pilot.

cool silhoutte - I am not sure about the vignetting the way you did it, but the colors are pretty cool

not sure I like the vignetting and I can see a slight halo around the top part but I love all the detail in the kite

I really like the use of dramatic lighting in this shot. I think the person being in silhouette is perfect.

Nicely caught. What I love about this is the sharp tack edge of the silhouette. There is no blur and it is just so distinctive. Man, I can see each individual line connecting the diver. The line of the parachute is spectacular and the yellow and diagonal red stripe really adds more POP. Well done. Bumping up.

This is an AWESOME shot. I think this has the most originality out of all 600+ images. I'm giving it a 10 for color, creativity, DOF, sharpness and all that other stuff. Great job with this..

Good luck, I hope others see what I see.

I don't know if you burned the clouds too much or if they really looked that way but the effect is too much.
