Backlit Hanging Plant
by Dale R. Palmer

This photo has a few interesting things about it from backlighting. One is the backlit flowers and that is the main feature I suppose. Next just below the lip of the pot I can see light coming through the plastic pot with shadows of various stems, etc. Then to the far right of the pot is a reflection on the pot of the light bouncing off the landscape tag that I left on the pot. And to the left on the pot is a direct light from the sun.

Canon EOS 80D ,Sigma 18-250 macro

I like the play of light and shadow on this plant. And the light that you see coming through the pot makes the shot even more interesting. Nicely done!

Is the basket in an alcove of some sort? Interesting combination of lightings.

Nice, Dale! And you are right about all the variety of different light effects going on here. Fun! Very nice colors and exposure too.
