I always wondered if you could give a black outline to a subject. An opposite to rimlighting if you will. So when I saw it in a book I decided to try it. It ended up being a bigger challenge than I anticipated. I don't fully understand yet how to control the effect. The effect isn't quite that good in this shot and it isn't as nice as it should be but I spent enough time on the exercise I felt obligated to submit it.
Disqualification Details
Your entry must be taken during the challenge submission period, and not before. It must also have valid EXIF to prove this. Please read the challenge submission rules.
It looks like this was photographed with a black background and then had a pink backround Photoshoped in. What ever happened it looks kind of odd to my eye.
