ANNOUNCING THE WINNERS of the print contest: I want to send out a big THANK YOU to all of you who continue to be present here at E X P E R I E N C E. For those who did comment on the Print Contest Images, I put your name in a bowl and drew two winners: Kevin Hawkins and Megan Uhan. Please choose an image from the blog galleries and send me an email with your mailing information.
Today’s post is a departure from the slap zoom and in camera multiple exposure technique I presented on Wednesday. With this image I DID do an in camera multiple exposure on a north shore fern and then flipped it horizontally and vertically, essentially creating 4 panels from 1 image.
Technical: Canon 1Ds Mark II, 24-70mm, Singh Ray Vari ND filter, 10 second shutter.
Canon IN CAMERA Multiple Exposure Method: Since Canon does not provide a multiple exposure feature, I figured out a way to trick it. During the exposure and during the MOVEMENT of the camera I cover the lens with a piece of black foam core. This minimizes blurring, allowing me to capture cleaner moments between movements of the camera.

What a great technique to produce design elements from a single image, Alec. I look forward to see more of your experimentation from images along the shore.

Now we’re talking! and accomplished completely without any compositing! Really like the color too.
I’ll tell you what though… I kept clicking on the image hoping it would open in a pop up window so I could see it bigger… haha – I seriously clicked on it for about 10 seconds wondering why it wasn’t opening! I want to see this BIG.
Reminds me of spirograph…loved those things. A kaleidoscope of patter and movement. I, like Matt, would like to see this big. kg
Hi Gang,
Matt, YES I thought you might appreciate this more after your comments the other day. I’m getting ready to print it big, just to see how it feels. There is a ton of detail to get into in this image. THanks for stopping by. Kim, hmmm a kaleidoscope you say? Perhaps the reason for the “KS series…”
Hi Wes,
I’m so tempted to get the Nikon just for that feature, and I know YOU have it, you rat. Anywho, necessity is the mother of invention, so there we have it…a bit of a different technique produces its own graphic temper.
Have a great weekend, Wes.
Well aren’t you clever. I was wondering what the KS stood for. Thank you for sharing.
