From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

An example of contre-jour (French for "against the day light") photography, when the camera is pointing towards the light source. In this picture, the light reflecting off the ground within the tunnel gives depth to an otherwise two-dimensional image. It is uncertain whether the man is walking towards the camera or away from it. Image taken in São Martinho do Porto, west coast of Portugal, 1968.
