Another contest and I can't decide...
Why can't the theme be "cute asian nieces doing cute stuff" or "silver persian cats looking regal" or "living in an old mining town"... I have TONS of photos of all those! So, for this silhouettes contest, I'm having a hard time deciding if any of my existing photos are silhouettes. What do you think?

Clouds at Dawn


Angel against a Blue Sky


Continental Divide Framed by Pines


Wood Stove on a Cold Winter Night


The Old Town Well


As always, comments are welcome!

1. I wish I had #2 and #5 in my backlog of silhouettes
Very nice, though I'd crop out some of the bottom of #5 to put more emphasis on the well itself.

2. I like #1,2, and 5
Tough choice, but I guess #2 is my favorite. Just simple, yet stunning.

3. #2 and #5
And,as JeffR suggested, cropping #5 to put more emphasis on the pulley wheel silhouette part of the photo would really bring the image to the focal point.

Am leaning toward #5, especially if you do crop it per suggestion.

Great photos, RFF! And so looking forward to any pics you share about your special upcoming family meet :hug:
