Back Lighting



I love the way this cholla cactus looks when it's lit from behind.  Those millions of tiny needles look like a halo over the cactus.

The same lighting works on this tall, thin cactus too!

I have a new post on Sharon's Sojourns today.  Take a peek at what Wickenburg Arizona was like in the early days.

    Nice! I like backlighting, but seeing your images today reminds me that I have not come across similar opportunities very often recently. Must start looking . . . .
