Just a man walking along teh seafront at Brighton. I was sitting across the prom, and waited for him to get to that point in relation to the reflected sunset.

It reminded me of one of those Hitchcock cameo's (although the guy would need to gain some weight first). Nice wonderful picture, you shot it perfectly

This is one of those near flawless Silhouettes that I have ever seen, very good composition (IMO). The reasons I like this silhouette is because you can make out a lot of details such as shoes without much trouble ( my computer monitor at work is old and not very good, I don’t have the brightness that I need). The sunlight seems to fall perfectly in front of your subject which makes it appealing, warm, and pleasant to look at any time. Very well done Bravo!

And you get him as a great and very clear silhouette against the golden light of the sun, good shot, Richard !

I like photos with silhouettes, and this is a very nice one. Strong shapes against the golden glow of the setting sun. The details of the rail in the foreground draw attention to the golden path of light.Very well captured.

L'homme à la boutonnière sous les rayons jaunes de Brighton ... bravo!

Very good - the Silhouettes create lots of patterns and the golden colour of the water blends in well :)

i love this photo...
bravo...

I was only drawn into this image because of the title (it's my favourite film), and your 'model' is even a touch Brando-esq ...
A beautiful silhoutte - the sun setting is perfect.
Well done.

very nice, peaceful

I just love this kind of pictures, as you'll see in the future. Nice light/shadow contrast. Good composition.
