Its called "open shade" which is nothing more than shooting in shade ( no direct light from sun )on a clear sky day so blue sky is the main light. In this case, your background is NOT in open shade, those trees are in late day direct sunlight.

About 7PM I saw some horses, and some pretty light on the hillside behind them. The processing that I did was pretty basic, pretty much setting the exposure levels and cranking in a little "fill" in lightroom. I blew the sharpness in this photo, but I love the light. It almost looks like one of those fake HDR photos. Other than just dumb luck, how would I deliberately get this effect? http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/3467844464/sizes/o/in/set-72157617 116711067/ -- The fastest way to get your question answered on the net is to post the wrong answer.
