Thanks a lot Indranil!
The idea really starts waking my appetite for some few B&W shots of that nice jasmine. (My favorite plant!)
Cheers!

B&W looks much better now Nick. I really like the framing. Nice Catch.

So, it is good or bad that it is dark but not really just a silhouette, Aziz?
About the background, perhaps I should try to get it as "watery" as it looks on the bottom, over the whole of the background. I think that this would be what Dave's idea boils down too.
Cheers and thanks a lot!

Thanks a lot for the idea, Fabio.
So let's see. I sharpened ot a bit and converted it to greyscale. Well.. I don't see much of a difference. :-/ Does the attachment look better to you?
Cheers!

Thanks a lot for the nice comment and the idea, Dave!
I think too that this would be one possible way to make ot better. I tried a quick and dirty cloning of the dark parts of the background on the highlights just for getting an impression of the overall lighting then, and it seems to work well. (Attachment just for quick visualisation of the overall lighting.)
Perhaps also another possiboe way would be to put a strong light source behind the riffled glass of the window, in order to have all the background almost completely white. Perhaps then the shilhouettes would look darker - almost black.
Thanks a lot!

a bit sharpening and (maybe) conversion to b/w?

Good silhouetting against the textured background, Nick! It might work a little better with slightly less exposure for the light part at the top, though. Dave.
