[Theme] Multiple-exposure, image-overlay from your camera, please share yours.

[jeoprix]

Most Nikon DSLR’s support the multiple-exposure function, that is capturing two or more successive exposures on a frame. Also, for those who shoot in RAW format, you can always exploit the image-overlay feature of your Nikon cameras, which borrows the concept of multiple-exposure’s end-result. But with the advantage that the combining process can be done by selecting any of the photos that you want to combine as long as they are shot in RAW.

I’m sharing some photos, please share yours, too. Thank you.

and another one. . .

Nice examples of what can be achieved. However, I fail to see the need for introducing yet another term. Why not label it 'multi-exposure' or in-camera composites? The image-overlay is but multi-exposure with Autogain = ON.

As in any variant of composited images, having a plan is the crucial point.

I really dig the second image!

[Jakov Minić]

All three are really nice!

Yes Sir Bjørn, I totally agree that in-camera image overlay is actually multi-exposure. They are located though in separate menu, the multiple exposure is in the shooting menu and the image overlay is in the retouch menu.

Nice mage Jakov, I dig the dramatic light range.

You don't need the camera feature to arrive at "image overlay" results. This is not done in camera at all, nor is it a result of PS.

here's one of my first few takes. . .

WOW! How was it done then?
Very interesting!
Thanks very much for sharing.

This is a very nice one, John!

Below image is actually a double-exposure. One taken during the day without the fullmoon, and another shot at night during a fullmoon.
Both shots, at same focal length to make the final image look realistic.

Another take on the 'girl & church spire' theme. Same procedure as the previous one. Taken less than 1 m away from the previous shot.

There is a ceiling light sneeking silently in... I'd think a window pane plays a role beside the obvious.
