Double Take (33 of 52)

Hello My Friends,

For this week I set my goal to use the multiple exposure feature on my D600.  I figured how hard could this be.  I understood the base concept, which is two shots on one frame.  To be honest, it was harder than I thought.  Taking multiple exposures really makes you think about the lighting in your shot. Where is it in your 1st shot? Where is it in your second? How will it blend??

Yes this can be done in post processing (e.g. Photoshop), but what fun is that.  Okay... it can be fun, but this was much more challenging. 

I am not sure how much I will use this feature in the future.  Post processing in Photoshop would be easier in my opinion, but it is nice to know I have options.  I might try using it for motion blur next time, rather than overlay.  Maybe even using a tripod.  We will see... 

Here is one using this feature.  I call this one "Double Take".

  1. Very effective! Congratulations on mastering a difficult technique. Even if you don't use it often or ever again, you will have it in your bag of tricks. This portrait has nice colors and composition. Might be a little darker, but otherwise a charming shot. Should be framed for display!
