Digital double exposure

Fascinating. I love the colours and composition. I didn't know double exposure was possible with a digital camera! #6374

The "digital double exposure" (didn't really know what else to call it) was done via layering in Photoshop 6, not on the camera. The photo is a composite of two images. The first is a photo of my TV screen, taken while my son's X-Box was generating patterns in time to music (one of its graphics functions). The second is a photo of a member of the Blue Man Group, which I cut down to just his head. I then reduced the opacity to a ghost-like level and layered it behind the middle of the first image. #9246

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
