Really cool shot. As an alternate to this you could set the black point in the image to the silhouettes to give the photo a much more saturated look.

Wonderful story-telling image. I agree with E.J. about the black point setting. Looks like it needs a little more contrast. I love the two opposite poses. :)

This is excellent. The title is great. BC is such great place to shoot. Wish I lived closer.

Yeah, I think I'd like to see this one with darker silhouettes too. Nice poses.

For those who wanted to see this with more contrast, here it is. I think that the original is truer to what I saw, but this version isn't bad either.
