The only one I personally do not like is the last, I find that the movement in somehow in contrast with the concept I have of silhouette. The other 3 are excellent, IMHO.

Pretty simple, just expose for the background (the sky). The subjects will be pretty dark, then just modify the curves in PS by dragging the bottom left part of the curve to the right clipping the darker colors (which the sky won't be effected) making those dark areas completely black. Sometimes I'll do the same for the highlight (top right) and drag it to the left making the background even brighter. That's basicly what I did to these.

It's going to be pretty thick, lol. I've almost turned 20k shots on this 10D....and I don't shoot professionally, just my immediate family.

mgbeach, that's is cool. I didn't like the horizon as much on that one, that was a good idea.
