Double Exposure Gallery
SHARE

Shooting a double exposure is a tricky thing. Sure, nailing the exposure is tough, but getting the right composition can take all the patience in the world. So, when we tasked our talented readers with making double exposures as part of our monthly Photo Challenge, we were excited to see what they came up with. They didn’t disappoint.

Take a look through the gallery and you’ll find all kinds of creative uses for this unique technique. There are a lot of portraits, of course, but there are also some surprises.

If you’re feeling inspired after looking at the photos, check out this great tutorial on how to make your own double exposure images.

A Natural Disaster

A Natural Disaster

By Alena Mealy After watching many different documentaries about Earth’s natural disasters, I began to research stock footage of hurricanes, whirlpools, and tsunamis. I began to think of how beautiful the colors of the city were in the image I used to overlay in the girls face. I began to enjoy the idea of overlay design and how it can be unpredictable, like a natural disaster. CAMERA: Nikon SLR
