Wow!
What a lovely concept. I have to say, I am a big, BIG fan of silhouette shots, especially around sunset and sunrise.
Her pose is just absolutely amazing and spot on; it's fluid yet solid at the same time. And her silhouette is great too.
The colours on the horizon and reflected in the water are amazing too. They just add a warmth, a life, a texture to the image.
The only criticism I have is to do with the composition. I really like the section of wall you have down the bottom. But the tree branch that goes across her detracts from the image I feel. I think the reason silhouette images work so well is because they are so simplistic. Personally, I'd love to see her on the wall with the lake as a background and that's it. No trees or shrubs or anything contesting for my attention. She needs to be the focal point and right now I think there are a couple of elements competing for that.
All in all, very good. Can't wait to see some more.

I was thinking the same thing about the branch, but we tried a few places and this seemed the most suitable. Thanks for the critique!

I love the color of the sky, and how you got an *actual* silhouette instead of a half-a$$ed one. XD The pose is great; very yoga-ish, calm, collected. And the reflection on the water really tops it all off.

I've been thinking about what words could the best express my thoughts about this picture, but nothing comes to my mind.
It is simply beautiful, pur and hypnotizing.
I am still searching for my words.. (laugh)
I mean.. it is just WOW.
Everything in this picture was meant to be there like the trees, the ducks, the sunset..
I love it (but totally!).

Thanks for the comment! We were on the same ledge about 6 feet over but there was no bushes or trees. This place in the picture seemed to create the most atmosphere.
