Multiple Exposures (In Camera)

I had the use of a Nikon D3S (Thank you to Romi and Nico at Nikon!) and with that the absolute thrill of making multiple exposures in camera (this is something I had always done using layers in Photoshop). Obviously the initial temptation was just to make as many multiples as possible, mostly resulting in creative and often abstract impressionistic images.

It was Frank Krummacher who reminded me that multiple exposures could also be used to “mimic” long shutter speeds, but it was Nicole Krummacher who had the gem!! - Change the white balance settings in one of the individual exposures to bring about subtle colour differences in the multiple.

Here are some variations for movement in the multiple exposure:

1) Rotation around a fixed pivot point
2) Rotation but moving the pivot point
3) Rotation, but including a change in zoom, between each individual exposure
4) Vertical movements or linear movement
5) Random Movement
