I like the use of light above all else, though I'm really not sure about the filter, but that is only my opinion. The siluet is gorgus, and I love the way the lite peeks through from behind. -Gabe-

Thanks guys - this is one of the pictures I've had offers for at work. Yes, cold hard cash! Yippee!! I'm an artist!! lol. @Gabe - All of the pictures I've posted up to this point have been taken on the Fuji MX1200, no filters available and that camera doesn't have ANY manual options - exposure, white balance etc are all automatically set, which is one of the reasons for my replacing it. (And the fact I needed a zoom). Any effects in my pictures are courtesy of Photoshop and a bit of time, and being in the right place at the right time to get the picture. In this one I was acually in the middle of a fenced-off area of saplings to get the sun where it was - a foot high stool would have made it perfectly behind the head, coz I couldn't move any further back! Showing this one around at work has turned it out to be one of those pictures people either love or hate.... personally I didn't rate it at all when I did it, but it's grown on me! And I won't be saying no to the money, either....!!! lol
