WIT: I went out to a local Massachusetts Audubon Society Wildlife Refuge in Topsfield to seek double exposure opportunities. The swallows were very active. Many of them liked to land on this post (which also holds a nesting box). It was fairly close to an accessible area. I shot lots of sequences of birds flying by, landing, and doing the territorial thing.
I got down low to make the background pure blue sky to allow smooth blending of images for a double exposure. I put both images in a photoshop file and made a layer mask on the upper layer and painted with black until the leftmost bird came through. I dodged and sharpened the birds to bring emphasis and burned the post a bit to make it stand out less.
This pair of sequential shots worked best for two images by themselves.
I cropped about 1/3 of the top and right side for a closer view.

Now understand, 99 percent of my photos are black and white. And, as I do understand that some pics are best presented in color, I do then offer up these few. But my passion still lies in the absence of color.
2020 has become a nightmarish scenario for us all.
Will it cause a lasting seismic change for the Earth, I wonder,
Personally I would hope so but I strongly suspect that it will not.
A Multiple Exposure In-Camera started the process and the project then grew with a life of it's own.
Canon Rebel EOS t2i, standard lens with circular polarizer, set at ISO-100 and F-11 on bulb with shutter locked open in a pitch black room.
Two Vivitar 285 speedlights on 6ft stands, bounced with umbrellas placed to left and right of camera, angled slightly inward, canted slightly downward, triggered manually and separately (alternating right, left, right, left, right) for a total of 5 flashes. Total exposure time was roughly 70 seconds for five poses.
Here's a multiple exposure shot I created by merged two different scenes together using PhotoStudio. The background scene was taken on January 9th, 2007, the Moon scene in December 2006.
