I was always amazed by multiple exposure and wanted to know how to do it. At the beginning of the photo semester we were meant to find our favourite photographer and mine happened to be Jerry Uelsmann who is the GOD of multiple exposure and when I first saw his work I wanted to the things he was doing. His images were so beautiful and he is such a talented man that I wanted to follow in his footsteps. Later on in the semester we were suppose to do a multiple exposure but in Photoshop I knew it was my chance to see how well I was able to make multiple exposures and it turned out to look awesome. Jerry Uelsmann worked with up to 8 different enlargers when he created his masterpieces and I worked with 3 different ones when creating my multiple exposure. It doesn't really look like I used 3 different photos but at the bottom where the trees are is one photo, the top where the clouds are is a different photo, and the eye, obviously is a different photo. I really like using eyes in my photos because I feel like eyes express the most emotion no matter what. If someone is truly happy or just pretending to be happy their eyes will tell the truth. They are also all so different and unique and beautiful and the way the eye works and looks is unbelievable. I really enjoyed doing this project because it was really fun and I finally got to see how this stuff actually works. I love my multiple exposure because although it was a tough process and sometimes annoying it was worth it for the result I got.
