Double Exposed Portraits

An example of a silhouette...

Hello everyone that actually views my blog! Today we'll be reviewing: Portrait photography! Now that saves me all the time and trouble of explaining it. However, as always, if you're like me and refuse to click the link, it's pretty simple: a portrait is a picture of a person. That's it. Done! Wait... I've got some other stuff to explain... A profile. And silhouettes... Ok then... Both of these things are portraits. They are both pictures of people. Profiles are the SIDE of someone's face. Just one side. Nothing more. (Or you could think of it as the outline of someone's face...) Silhouettes are a photo of someone in only two colors. Usually, a silhouette IS a profile, but that's beside the point. The two colors are usually black and white, as shown Hea:

FIle, Automate, Load files into stack.

Back on the REAL topic that I never told you about: DUBBLE EXPOSURE! Sweg. Anyway... Double exposure is traditionally made when a photographer takes two photos and burns them onto the same roll of film. The photoshop "Dodge" tool works similarly. If you actually want to know how to make on of these guys shown BELOW, look at This Tutorial, This one, and this one. In case you want the brief overview, basically you go to "file", "scripts", and click "load files into stack." Then select your portrait and 1-2 other images. Afterwards, dodge around your portrait, double click all the layers, and change the blend mode to "screen" mode. Arrange the photos, make some cool adjustments, and bing bang boom! A cool thing has been fabricated! I might want to create this thingie because... well... I have to? For a class? Nah. It's because it kinda shows the inner meaning of the portrait you do it too. Like if you're rooted or something, you could double expose you with a tree or something. Yeah. (It's actually because I'm forced to... Don't tell any1! :>)

If you look at the bottom of this page, you'll see the two examples I've "Helpfully" provided for "you". The one to the right is me, and I used grass and a tree for a few reasons. (and by a few, I mean 2.) 1. I like nature. 2. Those were the only things I had available. The one to the left, however, is ME! and the symbols I used were my computer, and some cooking supplies. I used these things for THREE reasons. 1. I like to cook. A LOT. 2. I'm smart like a computer, and like computer games. And 3. They were also the only things that I had... JK. Lol. SEE THE PHOTOS HEA \/\/\/\/ ;)

Hey! I'm beside myself!

Signing out until a few minutes in the future,
