Default Sunset: Too much of a cliché?

I just love sillouettes. I guess sometimes is easy to get a nice sunset, but sometimes it takes patiente. The mean walking was actually talking to the man sitting, and got up and left. Got lucky.



Hope you like it.

Very nice and no, not too much of a cliché, if well done and presented nicely, as this is.

Very nice. GREAT color.

I thought that this was a "double exposure" . The man walking away looks like it could be the man sitting.

I also thought it was a double exposure with the same guy in both places.
I wouldn't say it's too much of cliche. It's well done. The only thing is that the 2 men feel very disconnected. I suspect that if the standing one had been talking to the sitting one it would have told more of a story.

I think you should play the lottery. What are the chances of someone dressed exactly like (including glasses) someone sitting on a bench.

In Portugal, those types of hats are very used amongst older people. They were actually sitting beside one another. I think I have a picture or two with both of them sitted. i will ook for it and post. Maybe it is better. But i actually prefer this one.
Txs for your words.
