Double Exposure Take 2

The second attempt at double exposure, with one in focus and other out of focus. Railroad tracks are heading north just outside of Richland.

Wow, that is a great effect! I like it a lot. The perspective is really good too!

@lislee75 Thank you Lisa, it is fun to try new techniques.

[Carolyn Sue]

love the perspective you took! Great lines!

@cscecil Thank you Carolyn, I used the railroad tracks to see what happens with the double exposure

[Jenn]

Great lines Harry! I haven't really tried photoshop...but I really should. Picnik just makes it so easy not to!

[Harry J Benson]

@shutterbugger Thank you Jenn; you can download a 30 day trial, I use Photoshop Elements.

Very cool!! I have really never tried to edit a photo, except through Picnik and that is just with a border and a little softening in a photo or two, around the edges. Love this! :)

[Harry J Benson]

@scooter Thank you Scooter; It is really easy if the software has layers drag one on goop of the other and change the opacity of the one on top

[bilky]

I like the effect and the angle.. :)

[Peggy Scroggins]

Love the composition and tones of this one. FAV!

[Harry J Benson]

@bilky Thank you Bilky, it is a fun technique!!
@miata2u Thank you very much Peggy, the overcast skies gave the right lighting

[Jen Dee]

Very neat effect! Really forces you to take a second, longer look at the photo.

[Harry J Benson]

@jendee3 Thank you Jen, I liked the result and your comments help me continue on my learning curve.

[Kirsty .P]

[Harry J Benson]

@kirsty Thank you Kristy, I appreciate the comment

[Paula x2 Brumbe]

great technique. this is not just a standard photo.

[Harry J Benson]

@brumbe Thank you Paula, the technique is to take two photos one out of focus one in then layer them together

[wendy chapman]

very interesting technique
Great way to make the phot a bit richer.

[JeanCarl]

Interesting idea. I think I do this in one shot all the time, and delete them. ;-) Think I have an idea from this. Stay tuned!

[Naomi]

Love the angle and processing :]

[Harry J Benson]

@wac Thank you Wendy, this technique like hdr can add richness to a photo
@jeancarl Thank you Jean, I would like to see some pictures in the Bay Area with this or a similar technique
@naomi Thank you Naomi, I figured since I was going to do this process to also angle it off level just a bit.

[Diana Feeney]

Cool pic Harry

[Harry J Benson]

@difeeney Thank you Diana, this is a different technique that I have learned since starting 365
