"Backlit desert plants", by John-Morgan

Having the primary light source coming from behind the subject can be a massively difficult task to properly expose. However, when you get it right, it can produce some gorgeous results.

Consider using the sun, or an existing light, and then adding your own off camera light to the front of your subject. Or, you can simply expose the subject correctly, knowing that the edges will be blown out. Whatever balance you achieve, this theme can really open your creativity!

"Bryan Adams High School Hallway", by Dean Terry

Hallways are great. With the vanishing point, and the natural composition, they’re quite wonderful and easy to photograph. Don’t forget to consider the alternating or different lighting requirements for the varied distances. Often, the foreground has a significantly different amount of light than the far end of the hallway.

"Leaf on Step", by T. Scott Carlisle

Well, in the Northern Hemisphere, it’s fall or autumn. So, all our leaves are turning orange, red, and brown. Don’t miss this chance to catch all the gorgeous color around us. In fact, you Southern Hemisphere folk can celebrate leaves too! Yours are emerging in new birth.

Now, I’m a bit less interested in large collections of leaves, like simply on a tree. No, I’d love for you to take a quiet walk, and look all around. You’re bound to find some nice looking leaf, juxtaposed with something else. Or maybe it’s beautiful all by its lonesome.

"Every Scar is a Story" by Hryck.

Scars mean different things to different people. Some people hate them and try to cover them up. To some people, they are reminders of past events. To others, they are beautiful and used as decoration, much like a tattoo. You don’t have to find a scar on a person, either. Scars can develop on other living things — for example, on a tree — as the result of an injury. What kind of scar can you find today?
