^^^Last weekend to take your backlit entries****
This is just to remind everyone that at about 10:00 PM central daylight time tomorrow (Sunday) I will open up the entry thread, to which only I will post, after getting your entries by PM! You may PM me with your entry after I give you specific instructions in that thread. Have fun shooting that perfect backlit photo this weekend. Just don't post your entries directly into this group.

I happened to get an actual IPhone backlit photo, as my grandson picked the perfect spot to stop and dig in the mud in the sidewalk. All I had was my Iphone, sans any apps. Had it not been for our theme this month, I would not have thought to take it out of my pocket and snap the photo. I did do a very minor amount of editing, though.

1. I adore this entire scene. What a worthy entry it would be.
Additionally I want to thank you for a gutsy, fun and involved way of running this contest.
A big thumbs up from me.

Naturally I am biased but I think he makes a good subject. :) The contest is pretty easy at this stage. Cross your fingers for later!

2. Cold damp and dreary weekend here
Not enough light to make anything "pop." Sigh. I do have some new stuff from last weekend so hopefully I can submit something worthy.

Three weekends to work on this. Kind of gloomy here today too.

5. I do love your grandson in the dirt!!
playing in dirt is one of my favorite things to do...


this is all I could come up with and don't like it because of the little black bird in the background

6. Wow backlit pelicans!!
Very nice! I would try to get you to enter it if you hadn't posted it here.......shucks.

I think getting dirty is really important for kids! I'm entirely sympathetic.

Keep looking for more backlit shots.

7. AWSHUCKS live and learn - too bad - I like this along with its backlit reflections - but when you
can't use it, so it is! It's a new day for this month's contest. I don't have my entry yet, for sure anyway, either. I ditched the one I knew I would do because you guys would know its mine.

Trusty elf could take that black bird out for you in no time flat, and I know so could others.
LOL.
