Quality shot Ed, beautifully framed and a very distinctive silhouette, top drawer.

You have some outstanding silhouette shots and this is yet another! It's good you've got some cloud detail in the sky too.

Something of Halloween about this one. Technically excellent and a beautiful sky but not as elegant as a deer silhouette - can't blame the boar for that or the photographer. :smile:

Ed, I love your work and I love silhouettes but this doesn't work for me. I think the long vegetation takes away from the distinctive shape. It reminds me of a warthog on the Serengeti!
