Playing with time, you can get people to appear in the dark if they just sit still. I’d never thought of it, but apparently you can make them appear twice if you get them to sit still twice. As in, hold still for 4 seconds, then hold another post for 4 seconds, and keep the shutter open the whole time. For this it’s better to have the aperture at like 8 (rather than 2) to let in a bit less light to balance for the long shutter. The double exposures are Ryan Holsinger’s idea, and the ones here are tooken by him. It’s something I’d like to play with more. Not only can you find the ghosts in the dark, you can double and, presumably, even triple them.

Again, please note that all of the double exposures were taken by Ryan, and some of the redundant poya through the palm trees shots.
