I've been making silhouette art for a long time now and these images are my most recent creations.
Enjoy...

Terrific images Wallace - look like they could be at one of our local surf beaches! I knew you would not be quiet for long!

Thanks Tux.
I used layer blending mode “Dissolve” on the water in both images. To aid in producing a kind of water spray effect.

Wallace you are a great source of inspiration with these silhouette images and start my creative juices flowing - so silhouette dolphins go surfing too, especially in the big waves ...

I like it, I grew up on dirt bikes. We lived on a farm, my first one was a Honda Trail 50 before I could legally drive (Not even close to how they've evolved).

The white lens flares look like sonic boom representations, like the cyclist is going that fast!
