Sound Shooters: Silhouette

I wrote about negative space as background in White Space/ Negative Space

But you can photograph subject(s) as negative space — just shoot your subject as a silhouette.

♦Silhouette

    Expose for background: The background has to be brighter than the subject.
    You may have to manually focus the lens since the subject is dark.

George Washington and Olympic Mountain Range


The best time for shooting silhouettes is around sunset or sunrise.
