That second picture looks AI generated, why is it backlit?

Semi-transparent creatures combined with no natural light makes things look unnatural at that depth. Also, considering many things are bioluminescent at that depth, that creature in particular might be generating its own light.

Edit: wow I'm dumb and misread. I thought you were talking about the first image. Yeah, the second one is very fake

Lol it's not fake its literally a still of Willem Dafoe from the movie "The Lighthouse".

It's backlit because there's a lighthouse behind him
