Summer Silhouettes By TJ Scott

"Stills photography has become an awesome outlet for my creative energy while not filming," he shares. "Trying to tell a story with 'one still frame' and a crew of just me and a camera is a fantastic and different challenge - and I hope it remains as fruitful and invigorating as it has been since I started posting (on Flickr)."
Silhouette
A silhouette is a view of an object or scene consisting of the outline and a featureless interior, with the silhouetted object usually being black. The term was initially applied in the 18th century to portraits or other pictorial representations cut from thin black card. The term has been extended to describe the sight or image of a person, object or scene that is backlit, and appears dark against a lighter background. Because a silhouette emphasises the outline, the word has also been used in the fields of fashion and fitness to describe the shape of a person's body or the shape created by wearing clothing of a particular style or period. Silhouette images may be created in any artistic media, but the tradition of cutting portraits from black card has continued into the 21st century.
