Jetphotos - Backlit?

Real World Aviation Spotting
1

Hello,
I‘ve been uploading photos to Jetphotos for almost a year now, but today I can‘t decide if my pics contain too much backlit or not.
I was spotting at Trebbin airport in the afternoon, and the sun was coming from behind the back of the aircraft, only partially lighting the fuselages.
Please give me your honest opinion on the following pics if they have backlit, or not, so I have some sort of idea before I upload them, thanks.

Edit:
Btw, these photos haven‘t been edited properly yet, so you don‘t have to mention too much or too little contrast,…

It‘s a bit of a silly name.
I have 6 photos so far.

Thanks

The first two are probably borderline, but the rest should be fine as far as lighting is concerned. I haven’t done JP in a long time though

Would this be considered backlit? It’s a bit hard to tell since the Air China livery kinda blends it all in

Is this one?

No, that photo isn’t backlit. Backlit is when the sun is shining from behind the aircraft, making the subject appear darker.

This is fine, rule of thumb if the tail is casting a shadow on the body then it’s backlit.
