Backlit Colors and Shapes
Another view of the orchid that I've been exploiting lately. I wanted to use natural backlighting for this image, so I placed the flower on a kitchen counter with light coming through a window behind it. I placed a black background behind the flower for contrast, but positioned it so that it wouldn't block the light on the flower. Because parts of the plant weren't getting as much of the backlight, I took three separate exposure, and then combined them manually in Photoshop. Do it yourself HDR.
