I keep coming back to this simple silhouette image. I'm curious as to whether or not its just me.

Thanks to everyone for the feedback on previous posts. It is much appreciated.

Beautiful David. I'm a sucker for silhouettes, but what I really like about this is the color gradient.

David,

It is certainly not just you. This is amazing and quite ethereal. I love it.

This is a great abstract for me David, especially as I haven´t got any sense of scale. Color pallette is wonderful to my eye, as well as the surface of the water. The variation of the subject in the reflection just makes the difference to me.

Beautiful silhouette David. Love the soft reflection and the gradual transition from gold to blue. Well seen!

My honest opinion is that it's a nice shot, particularly with the color gradient, but overall it doesn't do a lot for me and isn't in the same league as your other work.

This is extraordinarily beautiful...the colors, the texture in the sky, and the simple silhouette...
Wow!

the gradient from cold to warm really makes this. the shape is reasonably interesting as well.

Love the simplicity of your composition and the incredible gradation in color from top to bottom. I can easily see why you come back to this. Simply fantastic.
