Angled sunlight in winter.

By all means, you are at liberty to shoot indoors/outdoors at any time of the day, throughout the yeat....In summer with harsh sunlight, in rainy season,with overcast sky and in winter with the directional and softer sunlight.....as happened in the photograph.....The halo or rim lighting effect is naturally got like a spotlight in a studio with sun only one light source and filling the dog's shadows with reflected light at its right from the road and the wall.....I used Aperture priority, with half stop compensation, which I generally fix on my monitor, particularly to avoid washed out light, as may happen sometimes.......Still time is there to click more of angled sunlight.....wishing all the best.
