Photography Assignment #81 - Silhouettes

By , About.com Guide

For our first photography assignment of 2011 I want to focus on silhouettes. Silhouette photography forces us to look past our subject's surface and use backlighting and shape to create a visually strong image.

Take a moment to read over our lesson on silhouette photography and then consider joining in the fun by participating in the assignment.
