Backlight is light that hits an actor or subject from behind, typically higher than the subject it is exposing. Backlighting an object or actor from the background creates more depth and shape to a subject.
Back lighting is a main component of the traditional three-point-lighting technique and is what makes a frame feel three-dimensional rather than flat. When a backlight hits a subject at an angle it is referred to as a kicker or rim light.
Within the context of a traditional three-point-lighting setup, a backlight reduces the flatness of the image against a background caused by the key light and fill light by separating a subject from the background.
Because back light photography hits a subject from behind at a higher angle, it gives a sense of depth and space behind the subject. Back light not only exposes the rim of an actor, but can help expose the space behind them to create a more three-dimensional image.

The early light hits the snow clad mountains of Western Norway creating an atmospheric scene as I sailed south from Tromso.
The scenery was pretty dreamy on this stretch of the Inside Passage as the sun rose on another spectacular day!
Bluebells @ Micheldever Woods
Another in my Bluebell series and another 65:24 crop. I will stop the Bluebells soon I promise....if for no other reason than I've a week in Valencia coming week after next!😂
This was a 3 bracket image with work on the shadows of the tree trunks to draw them out a bit.
Hope everyone has been having a lovely weekend. Thanks for views/faves/comments.

Sometimes it's just a question of luck and a photo becomes more than expected.
I wanted to photograph the swimming bird with its reflection when it just started to fly away. I only had to press the button - the bird did the rest. 😄
