    Is this image supposed to be a silhoette? If it is, maybe darken the dark areas more. Only really critque I have here is that you chopped off the bottom of the sculpture, this bird probably won't be there if you try again, is this the original image or have you cropped it?

    Interesting, but I'd prefer to see either a complete silhouette, OR more detail in the centre of mass.

    Here is the full sculpture in silouhette. You can see the 'ribbons' hang two or three feet down.



    Here it is again in silouhette. The center part is very knotted up so even in full daylight that part is hard to see and is always dark.

    You girls are hilarious with your spelling of Silhouette

    Man that's ugly Raiven. Who on earth told the sculpture that was art?

    I like the 3rd shot (1st one in your 2nd post) ... the blue sky and tack sharpness look great.I'd probably just crop that one to get rid of that structure in the lower right of frame.

    Lol, are we on the same page? I only posted three shots total and can not see anything but a signature in the lower right frame.

    I guess the art factor is in the eye of the beholder. I don't mind it really. I suspect those birds had a nest in there though.

    I love the sky in the second one. I think that is what would make this sculture stand out.
