This must be tree night. I like the silhouette of life against the barreness.

Well framed photo. The man's sihouette is a mystery. Who is he?

As in the previous photos, the stage setting of the characters is studied well.
The atmosphere of these images is attractive.

This is and exellent "against the light" shot. Good treatment of the light and contrast. The frame is perfect.
Congratulations !!

Wonderful mood and composition. I love how the silhouettes suggest but don't quite reveal the details of the scene.

Beautiful backlighting. The silhouettes are perfect. Very right the simplification of the tones, until arriving almost at the pure black.
Greetings

une ombre qui passe entre les branches.. tout le mystère caché entre ciel et terre et les branches de l'arbre.. une très bonne utilasation du B&W et de la lumière pour donner un aspect dramatique à l'image. great shot.. I like.

Hm. I think the photo maybe had more potential. A tighter crop, maybe...not sure but worth exploring if you didn't do so. May have treated the sky a bit differently. Otherwise I really like how the silhouette is leaning...it creates tension.

I love this silhouette which appears to be protected by trees, or is it the contrary, the trees which captures the silhouette. Always excellent work!!!

A wild and windswept capture that makes me think of Victorian novels . . you sure know how to make the stetting for 'atmosphere'.

EYES WIDE SHUT from The library of my soul, United Kingdom
My dark mind has me beathing heavily and taking refuge from my stalker, in a damp and dank muddy ditch. I hold my breath as he comes into view and I watch and wait until he has passed by, hoping that my exit will be clear......
This is immensely atmospheric, Sharon, and a little sinister which I very much like. Great work as always

A silhouette almost suspended to the branches, almost entwined with the tree... and yes, branches seem to cover and shelter this person... like a delicate wing.

Great silhouette. And again a great capture of the mood.

My first impression was - You are a soldier laying in an ambush and seeing an enemy walking by
:)
The drama here is very "heavy" with those clouds in the sky. Superb.

Branches seem like spider's web. Beautiful sky gradient.
