Silhouettes are very intriguing things. They can say a lot about the subject, and then at the same time, nothing at all. They almost demand a sort of viewer interaction that piques interest and causes a subtle questioning. They can be very mysterious and seductive like a glamourous old hollywood detective film; yet at the same time very innocent and straightforward, depending on what you, the viewer, are bringing to the table. Though I had quite a few shots that technically satisfied this week's PhotoHunt assignment, this particular shot seemed to sum up the shadowy, sensual mystique that a great silhouette can evoke. This silhouette is courtesy of one very cool hotel room window, looking out over Chinatown, that became even cooler at night with the lights out.
