Lately I have been looking for ways to stay fresh creatively, to try to see subjects in new ways. So I decided to attempt working with multiple exposures in the camera. Many digital cameras have the ability to make several different exposures and record one on top of the other before moving on to the next frame. Results are hard to predict, and serendipity plays a big role in the outcome.

In the picture above, I shot the same scene a few times, repositioning the camera ever so slightly with each exposure. This gave an effect similar to, but not quite the same as, intentionally moving the camera while the exposure is being made. In the picture below, I exposed different scenes and let the camera blend them together.

These are first attempts. It’s a lot of fun and it helps me to think differently and imaginatively.
