Theme of the Week:Backlit

Back lighting adds a dramatic element to a macro image. Rim lighting will define an edge and separate the subject from the background. Back lighting can be used to show texture or detail in a translucent object that is otherwise hidden.

We had many excellent examples that used these techniques. The top three chosen from this theme are:


-- from Coder


-- from Licya



-- from 'xpressions
