Very creative shot Awais. I like it allot!

I don't really feel silhouette when I look at this shot though.

Just my .02

Really cool shot! I think you may want to try cropping closer to only including the hinge and small section of the glass to capture the feel of "sihouette" more.

Great photo!

There are parts I am having trouble with....

1) The glass is transparent and larger than the frame/arms therefore takes away from the sillouette effect since the entire sky is blue

2) Because less than one half of the eye glasses are included in the shot, as a viewer, it didn't convey the "theme" to me as I had to really study the shot. Initial viewing was the sense of an "abstract".

3) This is an interesting shot but I know your eye and talent and believe you can do much better. This is my honest opinion as I respect your photographic ability.

Interesting idea. The lens distracts me from the theme of the picture. I think a picture of just frames are part of the frame would convey the message better. :):

Very cool Idea and I agree with others on composition.
Good luck

This is a very cool shot, but my eyes keep focusing on the glass rather than the silhouette aspect.

Yep, I agree with this... I'm sure you'll come up with something better, Awais!
