Just meter your camera for the sun or another light source, then put your subject between you and the light source.  My friend, Jodi, over at MCP Actions does a much better job, and she has a great tutorial.  Check it out!

In that case you can use spot metering for the brighter areas and use aperture-lock to keep the setting, re-compose the picture and shoot.

Whew! I have a hill I love to do shots on, and I also lay down on the slope to shoot up. The first time I did a silhouette shot was just after a rain, and I kept sliding down the wet hill. ;) I'm looking forward to seeing how you process your silhouettes, and if it's anything like I do. You can see some of my silhouette sneak peeks here: http://perfectlynaturalphotography.com/category/silhouettes/ - there's a GORGEOUS one of the couple in the family session about to kiss - I find it rather sexy :) - and a fun one of her boys playing ball.
