Multiple exposures - first attempt

[Olegis]

Hi all.

This is my first time trying to experiment with multiple exposures. The first image is combined from two images - the one being tack sharp and the other completely out of focus (that's what gives the image this dreamy effect) :

The second image is a combination of 5 exposures. Personally I'm not happy with the result, but hey - this is the first time !

How do you take multiple exposures with a digital camera? What type of camera did you use?

Olegis,

I have been trying to figure this out myself on my 20D. Did you basically just take five shots, and then layer them on top of one another? BTW great try...keep at it!

Hi guys.

I'm using the 10D camera, but it's doesn't matter which camera you use. The technique is very simple - shoot whatever you want to shoot and organize all the frames in layers. Then change the opacity of each layer until you get the desired effect. Here is a small tutorial which explains the whole thing - http://www.robwilliams.ca/Articles/Digital_MultipleExposures.htm
