Backlight + Shaded
This picture is the same row of trees in a different angle where the sun shines in the front. The strong sunlight makes the tree's shadows much stronger in the back, making them looking more like silhouettes. In the shaded focus, this looks like if this was taken in the magic hour which is just in the morning. Using a more neutral color helps bring white sunlight and makes it warmer.
One of the shooting challenges this Fourth of July is that the West Side of Manhattan, where Macy's has moved its annual fireworks display, is not really built for viewing: Manhattan is the object of sightseeing, not necessarily the place from where you do the looking.
By contrast, much of the Brooklyn waterfront is about views of the skyline, and so when the fireworks were over the East River there was plenty of unobstructed viewing. With the event moved out into the Hudson River, much of the viewing area has trees, fences, roofs, and streetlights stubbing up into the way. I try to make a virtue of it here.
Mercifully, this street light is not lit; for the most part, I was shooting into the spaces between the bright bulbs.
Leptosyne gigantea,
Sweet Springs Nature Preserve,
San Luis Obispo Co., California
While this species is native along the coast as far north as SLO Co., these were planted and are thriving. The backlighting caught me. And thanks to Mike for reminding me of the name of this part of a composite inflorescence.
Always him, the same model that is in my photos. This is a backlight. I think it's spectacular, what do you think?

This is sooc...except I hate the way Flickr sucks color!! This is sRGB.
Found this GREAT lighting in my house today...a window behind him and to his left. The perfect fill/backlight combo. I wish he was a girl with long hair here to catch the light better though, haha.
I tried to get my other brother to pose here, but he refused and only made faces...unfortunately.
My friend Dani took this picture of me. We are in the Zollverein Coal Mine Industrial Complex in Essen (Germany).
{Special Weekend Shot}
So Sorry Im late. I never been so late to post the {Special Weekend Shot}!
I've been at a wedding, and where I was, there was no internet.
Anyway, this is my little sister. She has been asking me over and over if she can be my model. Finally at the sunset, I accepted. Not that I don't want to (she is awesome!) but I have a lot of shots of her on the stream.
Other good news! I was in the paper yesterday!
This is the translation:
" His accent almost unnoticeable, a big smile, Nathan Kellum couldn't be happier. Passionate about photography, this young American just had an exhibit at the Franco-American institute. Born in Oregon, USA, this young man came to France with his family when he was only 20 months old. Its at Malifeu middle school that his passion for photography started. (We had to do a yearbook, like in the States, where we signed at the end of the year). Nathan started quickly to shoot everywhere he went. Little by little the young man perfects his techniques. (I like portraits, black and white and long exposures). He first exposes 6 shots at the institute's library, then he institute offer him the gallery; 28 pictures for 2 weeks. (It was a dream). And its a success for the young man who sold 15 shots and is starting a new project due to come out in october. Now in a arts program at high school St genevieve, he hopes to live on his photography. Portraits or landscapes, Nathan hasn't really chosen. (All I know is that I prefer working with natural light than in a studio.) And the new art gallery at the Malifeu middle school just asked him to expose his shots next week."
Have it in Movie Size!
Have a great day!
Nathan
