Absent Friends  by fbailey

Absent Friends

My Get Pushed challenge this week came from Wendy, and the brief was to combine multiple exposures to create the illusion of repeated objects using 3 or more of the same subject/object.

My camera, a DS3200, does have In Camera Overlay but I can only combine 2 images with this technique. So I resorted to Photoshop, used three separate pictures of poppies, played about with the sliders and overlaid the finished result with a background of the field they came from. It loses so much in b&w, so I left it with a hint of colour.
@wenbow Hi Wendy, I hope this is along the lines you asked for. I had great fun doing this, thanks for the challenge. I will try to produce another for you this week.

@maggiemae The poppy pictures were all taken separately on white card a few days ago. I faffed about a lot with the exposures to allow the blended images to show up the overlay layer of the poppy field. I guess really I didn't complete the challenge as Wendy possibly envisaged as my camera just hasn't got a multiple expodure function. So I had to wing it:)

Worked so well! Are you sure your camera doesn't have a multiple exposure function - the icon is a funny one and not easily understood!
June 21st, 2018  
Well done. Great result.
June 21st, 2018  
@maggiemae Sadly Maggie no, I even Googled it in case I was wrong. But thanks:)
June 21st, 2018  
The need for double exposures is certainly not great!
June 21st, 2018
