I've seen lots of great silhouette shots posted in various speed challenge competitions so I thought it should be a subject that could get a lot of really good entries. Post your best photo that involves a silhouette of some kind.

The challenge begins when posted, and will end on Wednesday April 11th, 2018 at 7pm GMT.

The winner will be announced shortly thereafter.

CHALLENGE RULES:
1. Camera: Any DIGITAL CAMERAS, including cell phones, are allowed.
2. Time: Any on-topic photo taken at any time is eligible, although photos that have won other competitions should NOT be entered.
3. Size: See standard P.O.T.N. Image Posting Rules.
4. Post Processing: Do whatever you like and the host will decide if it works.
5. Posting: ONE PHOTO per photographer in each challenge.
6. Details: Show camera model & lens used. Post brief EXIF data including ISO, shutter speed and aperture used.
7. Commenting: Please, NO COMMENTING OR "LIKES" DURING CHALLENGE but feel free to comment in this thread after a winner is declared.
8. Content: Keep it clean, and both Family and Work safe.
9. Have questions? PM me.
10. Have FUN! *

THE WINNER ALWAYS SETS THE THEME FOR THE NEXT CHALLENGE, POSTS IT AND JUDGES IT - BE PREPARED! A new challenge should be posted ASAP after you have been declared the winner

Thanks all for the great entries.

It would be a tough decision to rate all of these in order so I'm going to take the easy option and give a first place and one runner up!

Winner: M_Six
Fantastic image, love everything about it. The pose is great and the angle you've taken it from really accentuates this and gives the image a sense of scale. I also really like the colours in the sky behind the figure and the fact that their hands and the wheel are prominent due to the lighter background in this part of the image.

Runner up: Shuttershare
Again, great composition and lovely colours behind the silhouettes. I really like how there's three distinct and interesting poses within the one image.

Well done all, over to M_Six!
