Silhouette photography
Silhouette photography is when the photographers subject is shown dark and without detail, while the background is light. Usually the best light source to make the background light is the sun at sunrise or sunset. The backlighting from the sun shadows everything towards you and produces this effect. To take a good silhouette picture you must never point the lens at the sun. If there is too much light the subject will become to light. And if there is not enough light the photo’s background can become grey. The most important thing for a silhouette photo is making sure the background is lighter than your subject.
