Photographer’s Note

A cheerful end of the day on a seismic exploration crew in the Sahara, when most of the crew members search for higher ground to receive GSM information of their beloved ones...

The top of a trailer suits best for the task, specially at dusk, when conversations, games and relaxation are most pleasant...

For me the solar batteries are the necessary detail, searcing for photons from the dying Sun...

Hi Asparuh,
I think this is excellent! The shapes of the silhouettes are very nice... that is why i did a small WS, just something different... a closer crop...
Hope you like it!
Best regards!
Laurent

Hello Asparuh
a very good idea and capture of these silhouettes, all in a different pose, who stand out well against the colored BG.
Cheers

Hi Asparuh,
I am a geek of counterlight, darkness and silhouettes in photography. This is a fantastic silhouette photo, with the daring use of sun at the BG. I love the orange sky as well, and must say that, the sharpness of the figures are fantastic. Well done!

Hi Asparuh,

I like this picture, the silhouette in front of the sun is brilliant.

Very nice silhouette photo with wonderful colors and interesting people! I dont know which part of your zoom lens you used the wide side or the tele side? You have a very good composition with the standing man in front of the sun. If you had used a bigger lens maybe 300 mm the sun would have been bigger and maybe completely covered the man?

Hello Asparuh.
Cette photo est d'une grande beauté avec ces silhouettes humaines sur le toit de la maison. Le soleil est encore bien visible et les couleurs du ciel sont superbes.

Good cross-light shot this one Asparuh, the silhouette of the man against the brilliant posing sun looks fantastic, but there are some things in the image that are a little annoying, like the big dark mass below, that does not apport anything to the shot, so it's very interesting the workshop that Laurent (siolaw) has made for you, in which he eliminates all those superfluous parts.
Regards
