Photo Assignment #8 - Backlighting
Direction of Light was discussed in several of the links for Assignment #7. Backlighting is very simple...the sun (or light source) is directly behind your subject. You as the photographer would be facing the sun. Check out the following links for more information and then go to work and start looking around for 'backlit' subjects to shoot. When finished, post to Flicker under the set name, Your Name - Backlit.
