[QUOTE="Dawg Pics, post: 733488, member: 26505"] The silhouette image is just 2 images stacked on top of each other. I don't think you would be able to get that exact result in camera. It can easily be done in post using 2 layers. Put the mountains as the background and stack the silhouette on top. Then you can decrease the opacity of the top layer so that the mountains show through. After that, you can do some selective masking to increase the visibility of the bottom layer where you want it to show through more. It is pretty easy to do in post. The small couple you are seeing is part of the mountain/water image. The same couple is standing on rocks in the background image, but they show through the top image because the top layer visibility has been reduced/masked. Too artsy and fidgety for my taste, but that kind of image is good practice for learning masking and layer opacity. [/QUOTE]
