Yes, that's the same guy twice. Was quite hard to pull it off. What do you think about it?

I realize that the effect was wanted, but I'd much rather the image with the bottom half cropped out so that it's just a guy working on a tire with no harsh light.

I'm all for multiplicity but the light and shadows in this one really take away from it being a multiplicity image in my opinion.

Even if he did crop the bottom half out, there will be a ton of ambient light still in the photo.

This image was never intended to have a realistic lighting, it was just a technical challenge for me.

I wanted to show that I've changed my wheels in a creative way, it was not about getting a "commonly accepted" (I can't find better words) image, you either love it or hate it. :)

I'm always in for something different!

How did you do that? That's a really cool effect.

One way: Need to remove a background from something? Using masks to hide parts of the image.

Lovely! Are those early model tail lights on a later beetle? What year is she?

Thank you. It's a 1960 car, I put these correct taillights on when I bought it with later taillights. But this is the last year that used this kind of "snowflake" taillights, but without semaphores. Quite rare.
