Closed Theme Backlighting

[Yohanna_D]

Hi friends,
I would like to propose a new theme " backlighting" where the sun is behind your subject and so you have to deal with if as if you were in front of it. It's not the easiest photo to take but once you've discovered the pleasure of this backlighting effect with flares naturally forming, you would love the result, i guarantee you.
Here is an example of what I mean by it.

The rules of this challenge:
Subject: any macro subject whether it's insects, arachnids, flowers, mushrooms
Rules: image must be taken by you, it has to be taken facing the sun to create the backlighting effect
Posts: One image per reply/publication, and posts as many as you wish. All members are allowed.
Starts: August 23th
Ends: September 13th

exifs: f/5.6, 1/400s, iso 400, 90mm, Canon 1000D

Best of luck

Hi everyone,

a new one with the same technique at dusk right before the sun would "fall asleep";
This photo was taken in Romania (my home country)

exifs: f/2.8, 1/640s, iso 200, 90mm, Canon 1000D, no tripod

Those are very nice photos! Here is my contribution, this is the day I discovered bokeh balls early in my photography days, probably just a little over the top with f/2.8 but I was specifically trying to get some bokeh action for experimentation.

Canon EOS 30D, 100mm EF 100mm macro, ISO 200, f/2.8, 1/500sec, handheld, no flash

Superbe Chavezshutter !!!
