Fall Multiplied

This was a great fall foliage season, though some would disagree.  I have posted some photos HERE and HERE.

While making these “normal” images I tried some multiple exposure shots. Many modern digital cameras can made multiple exposure images and some offer a number of controls that are very useful in different situations.  Some of these techniques are discussed HERE.

The photos in the slide show that follows are all 10-shot multiples taken with a Nikon D500. All were shot handheld.

 

There are other ways to make multiple exposure images. One of the more unusual and interesting is with an iPhone and the ProCam app. (The Android app with the same name is NOT the same app.) In addition to allowing the iPhone to record raw images, this app has a neat motion blur mode that makes images with a “shutter” speed of 4, 8, 15, or 30 seconds. But such long exposures would overexpose the image, so what this app actually does is blend many photos taken at a short shutter speed. For making motion blurs of moving water, you definitely want to use a tripod. But if you set this app to 4 seconds and move the phone while hand holding it, you can make a multiple exposure image. Here are three photos taken this way followed by a normal photo of the image that precedes it.

Give multiple exposure a try sometime. You might like what you get.
