Title: POTN Powershot Speed Challenge #48 - Silhouettes

Challenge #48 - Silhouettes


The Oxford Dictionary I have on my computer defines a silhouette as, "the dark shape and outline of someone or something visible in restricted light against a brighter background."

Now let's see some silhouetts in your well-composed photos, as that is this week's challenge.

(As a reminder, please pay attention to all the rules.)
