"Backlighting"
@condra was the Judge!!
3rd place
@jumartphoto
One of the reasons I love backlit portraits is how it can flatter a models hair and add atmosphere. This is a beautiful portrait.
2nd place
@callmeyance
The almost silhouetted figure of the subject here is accentuated by the starkness of the lighting. The first thing we notice is the most important aspect of this image; our models dramatic pose and athletic form.
1st place
@zipporah
This portrait stood out as a clear winner for me. The back lighting which causes the feathers to glow, not only separates our subject from the background, but gives us a beautiful insight into the structure of the costume. Fantastic photo.
