Competition pics

Post by Tony Lee »

I suppose I could have put this in for the lighting comp but I am always aware of the fact that someone will probably knock it back cause the highlights are burned out.
Am I right ?

According to Wikipedia this is called "backlighting"
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backlighti ... ng_design)

They state:
backlighting will cause the edges of his or her hair to glow if he or she has fuzzy hair. This gives an angelic halo type effect
Not so sure about the angelic bit though.

All you have to do is change your name to something a little more arty like "Antoine Levada" and it will be in the National Gallery in no time. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Hi Tony
I was the judge for the 'Good LIghting' competition.
I wouldn't have knocked it back for the highlights.
