This week’s Monochrome Madness host is Brian from Bushboy’s World with the theme of Backlighting
Monochrome and backlighting make a striking pair in photography. Stripped of colour, monochrome images rely on light, shadow, and contrast to tell a story—and that’s where backlighting shines.
When the light source is behind the subject, it creates glowing edges, silhouettes, and a sense of depth. Together, they bring out mood, drama, and emotion in the simplest of scenes.
These are great. Especially the landscape and the group walking.
Glad you liked that. Thanks Margaret!
These are so good Teresa. I like the fluffy seeds as well as the people and trees in the first one
Thanks Brian, love that fluffy one as well.
Teresa, these are all fantastic.
Thanks Beth, glad to hear that from you.
Your photos are beautiful
So nice to hear. Thank you.
Monochrome highlights the drama
Yes, true. Thanks for the comment.
Those plant details are especially striking with the backlighting!
Glad you think so, Sarah. Much appreciated.
