DIGITAL SPEED CHALLENGE #505 - Photomontage

This week's challenge is all about combining multiple photos to produce one image. This can be interpreted however you like but must use parts from at least 2 photos.

I'm going to say that HDR doesn't count but using the multiple exposure feature in camera is fine.

Challenge ends on Saturday, 9th of June at 7pm GMT.

1. Camera: Any DIGITAL CAMERA is allowed, (not just DSLR)
2. Time: Any on-topic photo taken at any time is eligible, although photos that have won other competitions should NOT be entered.

I've added to the guidelines that using multiple exposure (either in-camera or using software) is fine for this challenge.

Some great entries for this challenge, each with a very unique theme to them. Tricky to place these, as always, but I have decided on the below:

Winner: M_Six

Very atmospheric image that's been well edited. The subject and lighting really draws you in. Would be very intrigued to see the individual components you used to put this together. Great photo!

Runner Up: darkslinger

Really clever use of the double exposure and camera movement combined to make this shot. It feels very dream like to me - emphasised by the apparent lack of shadow from the figure. Was this all done in camera or have you edited the image further on Photoshop?

Really tough choice between all the photos so thanks for the entries. M_Six is up next!

Good choice for first shep, thanks for your comments.
The images were initially edited in Lightroom and then layered in Photoshop.
Something that I've been playing with.

Thanks, for the nod, shep. I was impressed with the other images here. Some very cool montages.

My shot was a throw away image of the moon I took during a lunar eclipse and the shot of Old Main at Eastern Illinois University posted below. That is my shot even though the image credit says Eastern Illinois University. I was on the roof of a dorm tower shooting that night. The throw away image was just a big white hole in the clouds where the moon was all blown out from overexposure. I reversed the image and found it fit the lighting for Old Main perfectly. It just took a bit of touching up to bring it all together.
