For this week’s challenge, post photos using backlighting. Many subjects lend themselves well to backlighting - portraits, flowers, trees, animals... be creative or be classic - it’s all good.
Popular techniques for backlighting involve using natural or artificial light to create silhouettes and rim lighting. Sunlight can also be used to create sun flares and sun stars. Getting the correct exposure with backlighting is the most challenging aspect of this technique. The links below describe various techniques to use.
As always, new photos only for the challenge. Get out there and shoot!
