Hi Friends! Welcome to Photo Club.
For this challenge, we are going to explore the creative process of taking double exposure images. A double exposure is a technique that layers two different images together to create one photograph. A double exposure can create a surreal image, and the two photographs work together to create a new meaning.
For this project we are getting inspiration from photographer Claudia Kunin’s 3D Ghost stories series. In this series, Kunin uses daguerreotypes, which is an image printed on metal, and reflects her own images into the scene. This creates a fantastical effect when looked at through 3D glasses.
Since it is October, let’s make some spooky images. Check out the videos below to learn more and get inspired to play with double exposures!
