A bit bored today and its crap weather to go out so having a play with my camera in the house. I want to try silhouette shots sometime so thought I'd see if its possible indoors and I have an LED table which I thought I could use as the backlight and a random thing (Brian) as the subject. I'm using spot-metering and single-point AF.
SubjectExposure.jpg - taken with the AF spot over the subject to expose for that.
BackgroundExposure.jpg - I moved the AF spot over a bright part of the background and held the AE-L while moving the AF spot back to the subject and taking the shot.
The results are kinda what I expected but no where near the silhouette I was hoping for. Am I doing something wrong or is my backlight not bright enough?
