How do I tag this?

Posted under Tags

Is there a tag for when the image's subject matter is illuminated from a light source that is so strong, the contrast in the image is primarily between the lit portions and the unlit portions (with the unlit portions having relatively low contrast relative to other unlit parts), as in post #2228264? It's not what high_contrast covers and I didn't find an appropriate entry in tag group:image composition.

EDIT> I also couldn't remember the tag for when the background is primarily a colored square that is smaller than the image frame (and the subject matter). Is there a tag for that?

I'd call that "hard light(ing)", but that's not a tag we currently have. I'm not sure if there's another name that we tag it under.

Edit: backlighting does probably fit in the example you posted.

outside_border?
