The Aesthetics of Backlighting

Created and judged by Eric Mariette

Open Rating Results
Brief
This contest is created and judged by a member of the Photocrowd community. Want to run your own? Find out more >

I am looking for your photos that show any subject that is beautifully lit from behind. Backlighting can be a judicious choice, or a providential technical error. The backlit subject can be anything you choose, from the silhouette of a building, the profile of a person or animal lit from behind, or maybe a special moment accentuated by backlighting. Colour or black and white photos are both welcome. I look forward to seeing your creatively backlit photos.

How it works

Every photo submitted will be available for the crowd to rate once the submissions period has ended. You can see all the images uploaded to a contest, but will need to rate them to see how they’re ranked once the rating period begins.

Some contests on Photocrowd also have a judge. After the submission period closes the judge chooses their favourite images and writes some image reviews. The crowd and judge results will be announced on the same day.
