![]() I used my Canon 85mm f/1.8 lens for the Grim Reaper shot on these. The one on the left is straight out of camera, on the right has been edited post-process just for fun. Here are a few others that turned out quite nicely. I only had a small amount of time to try out this technique, but honestly, I could do it all day. After looking at my images post-process, I decided to enhance them somewhat using the SLR Lounge Preset System. No Photoshop needed to produce some pretty funky effects. Here’s the straight out of camera double exposure. I found that under exposing the second image slightly produced a better result. This allowed me to choose the composition of my second image while the first image was displayed on the LCD and gave me a pretty accurate preview of what the final image would look like. When I got to my second location (the cemetery), while in the multiple exposure menu, I selected my first image and then pressed the live mode button on the camera. I used the Canon 24-70mm f/2.8L lens for this one. I tried to blow out the background as much as possible without over exposing the subject. Here is the first image I took, following the “silhouette” method from the video tutorial at the link above. Heading down to the lake, and then to a nearby cemetery, with my model in a hand-made Grim Reaper costume, seemed like a great opportunity to try out in-camera double exposures for the first time. I’m a big fan of the theatrics, especially the costumes, of Halloween. Do not copy, modify or re-post this article or images without express permission from SLR Lounge and the artist.
