New Technique Challenge: Multiple exposure/Pep Ventosa technique
This month’s challenge is multiple exposure. You can do this however you like either in camera and/or via software. The photo app Snapseed, which is free for android or iPhone, has a multiple exposure tool if you’re stuck for fancy software.

Here’s one I did some time ago, but there are lots more creative options as to how you do it.



For those that are brave of heart and very patient, you could have a go at Pep Ventosa’s technique which involves blending anything up to 200 or more images to create impressionistic images, and as little as 9 images.

More information and examples can be found on-line, for example at:

The challenge runs from today until Tuesday 7th April.

@ditdatdot Thank you so much for all your info surrounding this challenge! You’ve motivated me to have a Snapseed look and to try to experiment with multiple exposures with my iPhone. Great fun :) A whole new creative universe has opened up to me. Thank you for that!!

@stimuloog you're really welcome! I'm going to have a go for fun. I had a quick go yesterday using one phone image and Snapseed and it's made me want to improve! Look forward to seeing your images.

This is really cool. I played around with Pep Ventosa's technique for a get pushed challenge last year and really enjoyed creating the picture.
