Digital Photography is one of the most creative hobbies you can
partake in. And sometimes we reach a stage of evolution in our digital
photography whereby we want another challenge, or another way to
express our creativity. And, undoubtedly, along your digital
photography path, you'll come across a technique called "Multiple
Exposures."
Multiple Exposures is a technique in digital photography whereby you
can create a really ingenious effect. You can add colour, darken
images, shade whiter areas, change shapes via light alterations etc.
It's really a fun digital photography technique and can give you much
scope. For example in digital photography sometimes you will find that
noise can interfere with picture quality and with this technique you
can tone down the effect of noise.
An example of multiple exposures is taking two digital photography
images and each of them to be exposed by one F stop. For example,
let's say that the first digital photos 'correct' exposure is F 16.
You can take the first photo at F11 and the second one at F 8.
However not all digital cameras offer the ability to create multiple
exposures. The digital cameras that can offer multiple exposures are
dslr's such as Fujifilm FinePix S1 Pro and S2 Pro. Can you create
multiple exposures without having more expense of a camera in your
digital photography? Good news; the answer is yes.
This is where Photoshop comes in. By adjusting a few things in
Photoshop, your digital photography images can become more and more
interesting. In Photoshop you can actually create the most beautiful
multiple exposures.
One of the first things to do to try this digital photography
technique is to make sure you have the right exposure compensation. I
won't go into complicated scientific jargon (light is pretty
complicated at a base scientific technique) but what I will say is
it's a precision in digital photography metering that mastery is
required. Instead of worrying about this in great detail, just know
that in order to get the correct exposure value you may need to apply
bracketing to your digital photography images. You can use your manual
setting along with the meter to get some images that are a little
darker than you would normally have, just for the purpose of this
technique.
With multiple exposures it's not necessary to keep every single photo
you take. If you want to give an image more of a certain colour or
brightness you can simply bracket accordingly. You can think of this
as gaining momentum. You will find that after a while, you look at new
eyes towards your digital photography.
