This is one in a series of four shots I took experimenting with the "digital multiple exposure" technique. This was my longest and, I think, most effective exposure of the series; that is, my ghostly images are the most apparent in this exposure.
How did I do it? I set the camera to its lowest ISO speed and its smallest aperture. I put the camera on a tripod. I set the shooting mode to remote/timer and the shutter speed to bulb. I walked into frame, aimed my remote shutter control at the camera, pressed the button to start a bulb exposure, and held a position for about 45 seconds, then quickly moved to another position and held that for another 45 seconds or so, then pressed the button on my remote to close the shutter.
It was fun being creative. It reminded me of an improvisational acting class.
St Swithin, Frettenham, Norfolk
Big church remote from its large village. The most striking feature is an early 1980s window of the Harrowing of Hell, which the church guide claims was 'designed and installed by a working party from the Manpower Services Commission'.
Not exactly the prettiest remote, but I think I really dig using my iPad and/or iPhone as a remote control for my TV. Rather rudimentary, but it is technically a game controller.

...Dodging traffic has never been so much fun. Well, so much fun while not being on a bike. Oh and my flash broke. Thought it was the end for the ebay guy but he just lost his batteries as a bus was coming. Not that big of a deal until the optical trigger stopped working. Fail. Made it work finally, put it right behind his head and boomed it hard, created this harsh halo that I think works pretty well, had my room mate holding the light stand with umbrella while ducking and weaving through traffic, serious props Lisa.
Anyway, another Swede shoot, Johan in the middle of the road just up from my white walled house, was kinda trying to show the lights from the beach front below and behind him, while sitting on the roundabout it’d give an urban gritty edge to his look, after chimping a few I just killed the ambient (a little) and went with my lights.

sb-28 1/2 in umbrella high and above for fill to give a dark panda eye feel.
Remote! (Sadly, according to the flight crew, the plane we were on was just put into service, and did not have the IFE system operational)
The controller for the lift used to separate bogies from the carriages of Underground trains. Upminster Depot open day, August 2009.
An Illustration from "The Children's Dictionary", published in 1963 and lavishly illustrated with b&w photographs.
The yokel controlling the tractor is a perfect specimen of the use of bizarre examples. I love the fact that he's not even watching the tractor; just gawping moronically
ahead!
"What's next, Charles?"
"'Remote'."
"Hmm. Let's have a yokel operating a remote control tractor."
"Consider it done. I know a farmer chap who'll pose for sixpence."
I played Driveclub over RemotePlay with a PS Vita which was a new experience for me. Really responsive and the Vita screen looked gorgeous but having it on a normal monitor in front of me meant I mostly just looked at that instead.
