March 2024 Photography Competition - Back-lit

[nre]

One of my many photographic fetishes is anything back-lit and I'm often ridiculed by Mrs N for getting enthused by back-lit leaves on the trees.

Any subject as long as the light is shining through or round it.

To be judged on all fools day, make of that what you will.

Rules as usual:

The photos taken must be your own work
The competition will run from the first to the last day of the month.
The winner from the previous month decides on the topic for following month and judges it at the end of the month
Entries and discussion on a single thread, please.
All entrants acknowledge that they may indeed win and that their adherence to convention ensures everyone else's continued fun.
Winners should update the Competition Wiki (it's easy)
Photos entered can be as large as you like, although bear in mind if too large, it may not be possible to see the whole image on some screens. Links to larger versions are permissible

Does this qualify as 'backlit' enough?

If not, I'll have another go

It's OK by me, if you decide you'd prefer to enter another image later post it up and make it clear which is the entry.

Just for clarity: back-lit doesn't necessarily mean silhouette.

I think something has gone wrong with your link there, Jayson.

Floor exercises - are people allowed? Backlit enough? Light positioned behind and above, feathered across her.

People definitely allowed.

Thanks for all your entries, some great images and not an easy decision.

I'm going to go with Craikey's runner, I love the light through the runners breath (steam?) well done for capturing the moment.

Over to you for April.
