Experiments with Silhouettes

These photos were all taken a while back, inspired by the tookapic silhouette theme. (You can see my tookapic page here https://tookapic.com/jenniferfaye) I thought I would post them now to provide a little contrast to the recent wildlife. 

This tower isn’t necessarily interesting to look at, but I really liked the sky for this shot. 

The following two shots are experiments with forced perspective.  For a first attempt at this, I was pretty happy with how they turned out.

I really enjoy photographing birds, so I had to include a few in my silhouettes.

Below is the only one I managed to snap with sunset colors.  I saw this sky on my way home from work and pulled over just in time to catch it before the sun went completely down. 

And possibly my favorite below.  Unlike all the others, however, this wasn’t taken as a silhouette.  I was playing around with settings and the puppy and I came out underexposed.  I used this type of edit to try and save it and actually really like the way it turned out.

Thanks for stopping by!
