Backlighting

Day 24/Year 2
Backlighting can create some beautiful and dramatic images. Backlighting refers to lighting in a photograph that comes from behind the subject. I took this backlit cat o nine tails photo back in early December. It was late day, just minutes before sunset. I saw this scene as I was driving along, and decided I must turn around and go back to catch the light.
The Specs:
Nikon D90, 18-200 mm lens, 1/60, f5.6, -2/3 ev
