The EXIF data is tored within the picture. I use lightroom so if you look below the histogram it shows the camera settings. When you click the "store Original" box when you uplaod a picture on this forum it allows us to download you pictures and Metadata/EXIF data. I am not sure what Post processing program you are using but most of them show you EXIF info. Plus your camera should tell you too. If you view your picture on the lcd display. You would have to read your manual for that though.
You might also consider using a UV filer or neutral density filter for these types of shots.

Danilo, Pardon me for adding that moving the camera angle to avoid the flare and then even a reflector would help fill the shadow side along with other advantages.
:-D

First Guess:
White balance may be off
Second Guess:
Under exposed
Third Guess:
God is upset with you (Ha Ha)

Jusoljoe, I second your advice. The fill reflector can also provide the catchlight as well.

I don't know about what Lauryn finds desirable about backlighting, but this type of backlighting is a popular photo style that many people find appealing.

Hi...can someone help me figure out why I have all this haze in my photo? I love the idea of backlighting especially during sunset and I just got a new lens (Canon 85mm 1.8). If anyone has any advise on using this lens or how to get rid of a bit of this haze, please let me know.
You've got too much backlight for your exposure setting, so your getting a lot of flare. I took a moment to process the photos to try to bring back some detail and contrast. I ended up making 3 different versions, 2 are color, 1 is selective color desaturation, and the last is B&W. My intent was to show you ways to correct or salvage the photo. Please let me know if you would any of the originals. I'd be happy to send them to you.

Just wanted to add to docrob's assessment of your photo. Whenever you point the camera near the light source and have the aperture opened wide, you have a very high risk of glare or flare.

Good advice. I have Bryan Petersons Exposure book. He is a good "teacher" and his books have good examples and are very easy to follow. His Book " Understanding Exposure" has a good explanation of shooting awesome shots with back lighting. Good luck with this, you can do some really neat things with this type of photography :)
