Back light

When you see back light, you may want to try to use it if you can. That way you do not always get the same old same old.

When I was struck by strong sunlight coming my way at the show the other day, I shot this. I lined up the sun with the edge and used exposure compensation (“the +/- button”) of -2 stops to darken all but the rims:

So what’s the scene?

These people are in fact merely lining up to get some free goat cheese samples. But this light makes it look a tad more dramatic, no?
