Double Exposure
In photography, multiple exposure is a technique in which the camera shutter is opened more than once to expose the film multiple times, usually to different images. The resulting image contains the subsequent image/s superimposed over the original. The technique is sometimes used as an artistic visual effect and can be used to create ghostly images or to add people and objects to a scene that were not originally there. It is frequently used in photographic hoaxes.
Tips for Double Exposure Images
- 1st image: Shoot your subject with the sun or a bright sky behind them.
- 2nd image: Shoot a well-lit textured backdrop, a landscape, flowers, grass etc. This fills in the silhouette with that image.
- The place where both images will show up the best is where dark from photo 1 overlaps dark from photo 2.
