    We, as photographers, like to play with light. Personally I like to play with backlight as then sun sets. These are the Karst Hills nearby Guilin in China at sunset.

    Yes, "we as photographer like to play with light." And the light that you captured here is gorgeous. Great use of backlight, I love the way it helps create depth and shape to the mountains in the background. This scene is magical because of the light. What a fantastic place to watch the sunset. I love it.
