Backlight challenge, Get Pushed 125 by shesnapped

Backlight challenge, Get Pushed 125

My get pushed partner challenged me to capture a backlit portrait this week. This is the second photo I've posted for this challenge, and this precious photogenic kitty has been the subject in both photos! Well, so has this lamp... The sun has not cooperated with me at all this week, so the challenge has turned out to be bigger than I thought it would be, and has certainly forced me to think differently than I originally had. I had to use some fill flash in order to get anything other than a silhouette of her. Not sure if that is allowable? My partner will have to make that call!
@livvy You have to decide if this qualifies for the challenge! (I had to use some fill flash - lowest setting I could take my flash down to.)

I would think its fine like this with the cat actually being visible and not a silhouette! She is good, isn't she!

Challenge well met, great use of fill flash - nicely balanced not overpowering the backlighting

Nice back lighting. Cute kitty! The sun has been pretty much non existent here too.
