backlit


i like the style of Nicholas Haggard's portraits, and his use of natural light. of the dozens of photographs in his portfolio, i noticed two or three where shadows & backlighting were featured aspects of the portrait. these caught my eye because subjects backlit in front of windows (etc.) are always such a "Don't" in Portraits 101. just one more rule that can be turned on its ear so effectively...
