Patch Photo Of The Day: Silhouetted Against The Shoreline

ST. LOUIS, MO — This photo comes from Carolyn Schlueter, an artist from St. Charles. She says she took this image of a group of kids standing silhouetted against the shoreline of Creve Coeur Lake just after sunset with her iPhoneX.

Silhouettes are fun and you can do them with any camera, though you may need to dive into your smartphone's pro options or dial in the exposure compensation to get it just right. Go try it out and don't forget to send us your best shots for a chance to win our summer photo contest.
