In this photo the photographer shot into the sunlight while focusing on the subject. The sun really illluminates the upper half of the photo and the subject. The photographer had to use a light meter reading to make sure that the sunlight does not completley overtake the subject.

In this photo the photographer also used the sun behind the subject to help lighten the subject. Since the sun is lower in the sky it is less intense in the photo. The photographer had to use a light meter to make sure that the sunlight did not overtake the subjects face.
