You caught a fine range of postures to add interest to your silhuoettes too. What a shame that you didn't have a camera with a larger Crop Circle with you ;-) ;-) You can get one with a 1.33x instead that takes the best lenses in the world and works fine for that kind of shot, although they encourage you to get closer. Couldn't resist!!!
