Challenge: Backlighting II (Basic Editing III) Camera: Canon EOS-350D Rebel XT Lens: Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II Location: Boston, Ma Date: Jan 6, 2006 Galleries: Emotive, Studio Date Uploaded: Jan 9, 2006 Add photograph to your favorites Add photographer to your favorites	Background is a sheet backlit with a tungsten lamp. Used an off camaera flash at an angle, and ambient room lighting to add light to front of faces. Hopefully on other monitor calibrations the faces aren't dark enough to be considered "silhouettes".

Quite appealing. There's a certain sense of asymmetry that makes it even better. Nice job. [9].

A nice shot, love the composition. One small critique, and I honestly don't know if it could have been avoided, is the shadow on her nose/eye/forehead. Good luck!

really nice picture, I'd prefer to see lips lined up with lips, not lips to hairy chin :) great photo. Also the white in the top left is a little distracting

This will do well...I like that they are in opposite directions, and also that you didn't go too graphic to get the point across.
