Challenge Details
Backlighting II
An Exclusive Open Challenge using the Basic Editing III rules.

Description
Backlighting is the idea of shining light at an object from behind, or lighting areas behind the object you want to highlight. You can photograph anything you want, but the use of backlighting to enhance the photo is key. Here's the catch: the subject must not become a silhouette because of the backlighting.
