Silhouettes

ARTIST STATEMENT

As you can see in this images I used windows and lamps to backlight the subject. I liked the natural light and the little bit of color thatI could get from using the windows. The lamps were very helpful because of how easily I could move them to get the silhouette I wanted. I found that the silhouette showed up much better by making the image black & white in editing so I did just that to many of these pictures. I wouldn't improve much because I think that these images look pretty good. The only thing I'd change would be clone stamping the string holding the Maine symbol out. I tried, but it didn't work very well.
