Very early in the morning on the shore of the West Lake.

I cropped; used Neat Image; converted to B&W; and tweaked levels.

Simple yet powerful. The picture is traighforward and it does send its message straight like an arrow. The BW is effective for this shot.

a powerful silhouette, Martin. The gentle Thai Chi movements and the concentration on his face is well seen. The back of his head, due to his hair, looks like another face. Very well done.

Agree that this is simple and provides a powerful image. Personally I would like to be able to see the missing hand, but still an effective image as it is. Nice one Martin.

Great sillhouete. The posture of the person is captured excellenty here. Is it possible to eliminate the ground more by moving into lower point of view? Thats the only point that I can think of to improve this excellent photo.

Perfect moment, he stopped the wind. There are no thought, just a feeling of life.
Again, so good photoraph, beautiful siluette. Very good timming, exposure, composition, and superb contrast.
