Yes, it was backlit. Yes, it's a silhouette. I cropped out the light behind the subjects.

i'm amazed that people (photographers!) couldn't figure out this was backlit.

I like this image a lot, particularly the graphic quality. Would have liked just slightly more tonal range. 8

A really interesting photograph but a silhouette is a dark shape or outline against a brighter background and this is more or less black on black. Great execution on the photograph but for me it is not a silhouette.

Not my idea of a silhouette but, if backlit it is.
