From the bottom of course - LOL

Submission :

I know many would not have this as Transparency and I can understand why it happened but in this case what I did was I had a white reflector placed on stand, person was behind the reflector and flash was behind the person. Camera was facing reflector. When I fired the flash, it caused the shadow of the person on reflector, it was not really solitude but more of the shadow of the person falling on reflector and I was using reflector as transparency. :D

Anyway so coming back My first ever last spot :D

My vote was very helpful in getting you down there :-) "Translucence ain't transparency!" I said to myself as I pushed the button :-)

It's good to see you joining us in the Right Honorable Order of the Brown Ribbon!

Ha! I didn't give it a great score either... despite really liking it for an image in another challenge topic.
