A few weeks ago I came up with the strange looking portrait of myself for my 52 weeks series. The idea was inspired by double-exposure shots, which can’t be done with digital as far as I know. I decided to take four shots of myself, one sharp, and the others as I shook my head from side to side, and then overlay them in photoshop. I liked the resulting surreal effect so much I’ve decided to shoot other people in a similar manner and create a series of these portraits. Kirsti was my first model, and she looks just as strange as I do. Who shall be next…?
too bad I can’t do it here and send it to you. . . LOL
A few DSLRs apparently do multiple-exposures in-camera (it’s a software trick, of course), but it’s apparently easy to do this as a composition trick in PhotoShop and its ilk.
Nonetheless, charmingly creepy!
