Challenge: Double Exposure (Basic Editing)
Camera: Canon EOS-400D Rebel XTi
Lens: Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6
Location: Davis CA

Date Uploaded: Apr 26, 2010

 There are so many technical things wrong with this photo.
Them being...Lighting, lighting, focus, lighting, and have I said lighting?

But I honestly can't get it any better than this, so if I am going to get a sub 5 score so be it. I am hoping that people at least would give me some points based on the idea, which I thought was clever.

Procedure:
Sit on floor of bathroom (only room in the house I can get pitch black)
Hold Apple in front of my eye
Click shutter, causing flash set on lowest setting to go off
Remove apple
Shine a flashlight at my eye for a few seconds.
Repeat a million times
Finally give up trying, and choose the best of the ones I took.


If it were not for DPL I probably wouldn't submit this. But my other entry is definitely not going to be top 5 of my team, so I feel obligated to enter to at least give it a shot.

A very cool effect. Of course, a few more takes may have yielded one where the entire fingers were preserved, yet, I understand the process involved of which time is the worst. These images require so much work and patience, but hey, you did good.

Double exposure proved to be great way to illustrate your idea.

thats quite a nice picture having the eye sort of melt into the apple all in all the picture is quite nice the lips and nose is a bit distracting
