Photohunters: Silhouette

I have a lot of shots of silhouettes so this was a hard one for me.

It's easy for me to photograph the birds in the trees at twilight but they end up being silhouettes.

I like silhouettes but you don't get the detail on the birds and it's hard to know which kind of bird it is.

The trick to the shot below is to see if you can even find the bird that's hiding in the leaves.

I happen to be a fan of silhouettes! I like these of the natural world.

I love these! I like the little tufts on the bird's head in the first one. They are all very nice.

Have a great weekend (isn't this little spring preview nice? I know that winter isn't really over but sure am enjoying this break from the cold).

I don't think you should worry about your twilight photos being silhouettes because they are wonderful. Have a great weekend!

I have my share of silhouetted bird pics too. Mostly they are photos taken against the sun. Birds are lovely -- but sometimes it does seem like the lovelier looking birds really are incredibly camera shy! ;S

All are beautiful shots but the last one - I love the balance - it would make a great photo card.

I had similar thoughts for this as well.... birds of a feather flock together I suppose. Mine is here.

I like the first one. You even photographed the feathers on the head.
