Silhouette

I love this photo. When shooting i wanted the reflection of the car at the bottom to shine, and resemble the water. The aftermath of this is that the Giraffe is in a Safari, looking into the sunset. I shot this at sunset so that you could see the sun better than if I shot it in the afternoon.




I have seen pictures of flowers being silhouetted before, so i wanted to copy the idea and try it for myself.  I love the detail that you can see. For example, the trees in the background and the different shapes of the flower petals. 




I shot this picture in different sets. I rotated the flower multiple times until i got the right shot. When i saw this shot I knew i should choose it. My favorite part of the picture is how you can see the back part of the flowers. You can see the green of the stem, and the red of the flowers.



Thanks Y'all for reading!

I really like the giraffeee picture.

It would have looked more safari-ish if it wasn't on a car. The picture is still really cool though.

Good stuff.

I still like your giraffe picture! It's a cool idea, and I like that you used something other than a person for your silhouette.
