This image caught my attention right away with the fog, forest and the beautiful model. It shows freedom and suggests that we should be connected with nature. I love the mysterious feel to your work. Good blending skills, but I feel like there was no need to add vignetting. It never works well when you try to turn something pure white black. Your picture will be cleaner after removing the vignette. Just something to think about. Overall great capture – well done!
It's rare to see a good abstract image made with multiple exposure techniques, but hey – look at this! The play of colours and textures is amazing. I really love the way it has been put together. I can't tell how many blended pictures I am looking at but I like it – an amazing idea. It's a little bit messy but that's the whole beauty of it. The more I look at it the more new things I discover. Well done!
Texture, colour, idea: all brilliant! I love the vignetting you achieved here. Deep darks reveal the feel of the stars and at the same time draw attention to the main subject. Great mood and atmosphere followed by the superb quality of the shot. I like how the blue tones make this image cold. It makes me feel a certain way, and it made me stop and look closer. This is what I like about photography – it can transport you to a different galaxy. Excellent work!
The contrast between blues, yellows, and oranges always attracts my attention. This actually mixes a long exposure with double exposure – two techniques together which is a definite advantage. It's a strong image, rich in depth. And it made me think... why are we in such a rush to get everywhere? Time goes by whether we like it or not. Slow down, world! Great capture, interesting perspective. The long lines of the car lights create an amazing 3D effect. It makes you look at the image from the bottom to the top, leading the eye through the image. Love it!
As a portrait photographer, I treasure every moment a model looks deep into the lens. You can see the connection here. Also, the use of textures and tones caught my attention in this shot. This is what double exposure technique is all about. Nowadays, it's easy to overlay pictures on top of each other, either in Photoshop or in camera. The question is, can you do it right? This image plays with depth in an amazing way, making this capture even more interesting. Turning it black and white was a great choice too. Well done!
Straight out of a Batman movie? This has an amazing, dark, intense feel which I could not resist. Great use of colours and an interesting shape created from overlaying your chosen pictures. It is simple but powerful. This monotonic atmosphere is something to explore further. Maybe it would be cool to incorporate extra tones and similar colours to blue and grey. After that, work with a model's silhouette and break their natural shape by adding the buildings over the face. Good luck and keep up the good work!
Great choice of base pictures to create this triple (I think) exposure! The smoke is very well blended with the model's hair and the background is fantastic. I think this image needs more contrast, or at least more edit on colours. Also, It would be a stronger photo if you cropped it so your model is perfectly in the middle of the frame. I love the moment though and the idea. The last base picture of blurred traffic lights (correct me if I am wrong please) adds an organic feel to the photograph with amazing texture. Keep up the good work!
What happens in your head when you feel depressed, sad, lonely? When there are a million thoughts in your head, your mind is restless, you can't sleep, you can't think straight? In moments like this, it can feel like you're deep under the surface, trying to breathe.
This image captures these feelings. It's pure art. Great choice of images and blending skills. A dramatic use of storm clouds sets the mood and the model's wet skin adds to the atmosphere. It almost looks like the drops on her skin are part of the rain coming from the cloud above her. Excellent idea!
I love the simplicity and deep emotional connection here. Photography is an art form which helps us to send messages without using words. This image captures not just double exposure but also tells a story. It transported me to a different mindset, made me ask questions and look closer at the message behind it. I love the use of light and grey tones. It all works well together, and it's not overdone. Pure art at its best. Keep up the good work!

Mastering shape and form in photography is a hard task, but this image shows some great skills! It is simple but striking. It made me look and think, trying to see how was it made. I'd like to call it a "photo sculpture" :-) which bends my mind and is an excellent exercise for my eyes. How far can we go in photography? The possibilities are endless and that's what I like about art. The only limitation is your imagination. Nice work!
I like the idea and how those two pictures are seamlessly blended together. It's a great example of creative, modern double exposure. The quality is there, with lovely texture and choice of base images. A white background always helps to separate the subject from the rest of the content, which is so important when adding so much detail to the photograph. The model's facial expression adds to the mood. Overall you've captured a very good moment. Maybe removing the green cast and adding a bit of blue would make it a better picture? I just feel like there is lack of contrast.

The effect of double (or multiple) exposure first came about way back in the days before digital, when photographers would expose a frame and then shoot a second image before advancing the film. The end result was two photos on one frame, better known as a ‘double exposure’. The age of digital has seen a proliferation of this photography style, particularly in recent years where it has popped up on anything from album art to countless Instagram feeds. Whilst many digital cameras give photographers the ability to create multiple exposures in-camera, most of today’s examples are probably created in Photoshop by blending layers. *Click on the 'Brief in detail' tab for more information and tips.*
This image is an example of an interesting use of colour and good skill in overlaying pictures. I like the abstract feel and the texture which has been created from the buildings and cars. The blue tones work very well with yellow cars and red tail lights. It's an idea to explore further, something to play around with. I love the feel, and it's a good capture overall. Maybe next time try to work only with the buildings and the raw feel of the lines created from windows. Good luck!
I like the story in this image. Well done with putting the mother holding the baby and picture of a busy motorway together – excellent blending skills. It is a striking and interesting image. The only thing that's unnecessary is the text over the image. Let your viewer read your image without using any words. That's the beauty of photography. It's like the old saying: "One photograph says a thousand words", which definitely applies here. Good luck with the future projects!
The moment captured in this picture is impressive! I feel like something terrible happened to this woman. Maybe she is worried? Images like this deserve a distinction. I love the deepness and contrast achieved here. The white wall and dark skin is an interesting blend. Her face looking away on the second frame adds to the atmosphere. I would take this picture just a little bit lower so your subject can fill in the rest of the frame. I think the top part of the photograph is too empty but that's just a small detail. Great job!
