Lecture of The Day | Double Exposure

Double exposure photography refers to the technique of merging multiple images into a single Work with silhouette , creating a surreal effect.

3. Experiment with simple portraits and details textured

4. Convert your results to Black & White ( Express vulnerability & strengthens emotions )

5.  Work with silhouette ( A doable challenge to create fun compositions )

6. Merging Two Photographs ( Interesting Textures, Combinations & May Tell a Story )

8. Use Shadow ( Transform the outlines to make a narrative )
