A gorgeous sunset!

Just playing around with some backlighting techniques. Sorry this one's a little blurry...

Should I do more of this?

Some background highlights are preserved and the foreground looks good. The RAW capture is even better. GH1 w/ 20mm wins this one.

Got to practice some back lighting techniques w/ the flash acting as a flare today.. I've seen so many really nice shots pointing toward the sun that I wanted to work on some as well (obviously w/ a flash instead). I think this technique will really come in handy in the future.

Yesterday I was in an odd mood and tried to make some backlight shots

Its always tricky to get a good backlight setup in a small room. This time it worked quite well but its still limited in space. The hard light from behind creates a lot of deep black shadows which enhance the visual shape a lot. Some poses look weird with the limited light from front but other poses are just great with that kind of lighting.

Hope you like!

No pude con ello y me derrumbé pero volví, puse buena cara y pensaron que estaba bien.

Viene la calma y luego de nuevo la tormenta, a veces es natural no estar bien.
