Great shots, i like the b&w best. I really like messing around with layers, there are so many possibilities.

That looks really nice! But everytime I try that it comes out a little fake. How did you go about stitching those together?

i want to know too. are you taking the photos and then just cutting them from the pictures and pasting them in the correct places?

How do you do it with layers?

Just take a couple exposures with a tripod; take one without any subjects, another with subjects and so on. In post-processing just merge all the images together.

you have to have a tripod and you cant move it or change the settings from shot to shot.

then you have to paste each layer on top of eachother... then cut out each image roughly then use the mask tool to extract them better.

but mine just never came out this good... maybe im too impatient
