p.1 #1 · Multiple Exposure at the Beach | |
Thanks to the prodding of a certain wacko and kinda wierd friend who will remain nameless, but as the initials of TripleYYY, I decided to finally try the Multiple Exposure feature on my camera. My results, we anything but what I expected! These are 5 shot Multiple Exposures, atleast with Nikon, I am simply letting it do the exposure compensation, I would imagine it's the same with other digital camera's that do it.
So what I did was, shoot 5 shots as a wave was coming in. Trying to catch it just as it broke at the biggest point, and then every second or so as it continued on towards me. I thought I would see the initial wave crash, then each subsequent wave crash as I captured those coming in toward me. So I thought I would see a shot with like 5 different wave crashes, each one getting smaller as it hit different rocks on the way on.
But... what I got was something that actually looked like I was shooting with a ND filter and about a 10 second exposure! Wierd! I was shooting at 1/5th of a sec... yet when combined, it looks like a 5 or 10 sec exposure... And this was shot while it was still pretty bright. So my conclusion is, that atleast at the beach, this is a cool way to simulate a 10 sec exposure without having to use ND filters or having to wait until it's super dark. And often a shot can get noisy as it get's darker, so this helps to take care of any noise issue too...
ALL comments are welcome as usual...
