For your assignment, you must take at least 50 images (many of these will be trial and error) of silhouettes. Choose interesting subjects (with recognizable shapes!) and remember that COMPOSITION always matters. Remember Rule of Thirds, diagonals, leading lines, framing, fill the frame, etc.)
Make sure you are achieving a black subject with no details, not a gray one with details. If you do not achieve a black silhouette then you will have to retake the photos.
Also, if your subject is in motion, you need to use a fast enough shutter speed to freeze the motion. No blurry silhouettes. That's not attractive :)
