Thank you all so much!!! Did not really expect such a positive feedback... I'm very glad that you like my picture :-) Multiexposure is a very interesting technique that I'm particularly fond of :) #11155682

Really--the image is out of focus (intentionally); what is the subject anyway; the greens are yellow and where do you want the eye to go. Really. #11155928

Elena Davydova level-classic October 10, 2014

Thank you for your opinion, Bruce! That's right, this is not a traditional image. Not everyone likes that technique. I personally like it and when I make such pictures, for me it's not about the subject or accurate colours. Instead, I want the image to give a feeling or impression, and I think that this technique works well for that. I know that not everyone likes this kind of pictures, like not everyone likes all styles in any art. It's a matter of personal preference. Really :-) #11155954

I really like this photo. How many exposures did you use. I will have to try this. I usually just move the camera using only one exposure. Great job. Cheers, Pam #11156510

Thank you, Pam! Glad that you like the photo :) I use both ways from time to time. That was 9 exposures, but you can try different number. Think, you'll like this tecnique :-) #11156513
