Hello there. I am Terry and I am a full-time undergraduate based in Singapore. I take photos, write a blog and design websites.

And no, I'm not a teddy bear.

Multiple Exposure’s Beauty

Multiple exposure? Does the term sound very unfamiliar to you? Well you're surely not the only one. Although I know pretty much about photography, I just got to know the term yesterday as I stumbled upon this on Wikipedia. Wikipedia defines multiple exposure as an exposure in which the sensitivity to light is reduced and then increased at least once during the total exposure time. Sounds complicated but it is actually a pretty painless process :mrgreen: I shall not elabourate on how to create a multiple-exposed photo since I'll be posting a tutorial about it pretty soon (yay!!! :razz: heh). This post is just to let you see how I'm enjoyed myself playing around with the concept.

Multiple exposure allows dark scenes to be displayed beautifully without cranking up the exposure or making us of the curves function in photoshop (which will create a lot of undesirable noise). 

The images below are several images stacked on each other digitally (using Adobe Photoshop), since almost all consumer-grade digital camera does not offer this advanced option. We'll start with the photos that are available in higher resolution (that is, you can click on it and the larger verison will be displayed in the lightbox):

1. Clickable Panoramas!

These images are made using multiple exposure (if not mistaken I stacked at least 3 identical images over each other). And then after doing this for each individual images, I joined then up using a panorama stitcher.  The images below are merely thumbnails. Click on them to view the full panorama :D haha!

2. Clickable Images

And here are normal images that are multiple-exposed. The second one is 6 individual images stacked on each other. Yes it is ME that is inside the photo. I was having a wardrobe malfunciton at that time so that why you see that I'm wearing that horrible looking blue shirt. Haha!

3. Miscellaneous Images

Miscellaneous doesn't mean that they're not important :mrgreen: they do not come with a larger resolution version because I think they're pretty clear and nice emough to be displayed here. Enjoy!

Well hope that the images are so nice that now you're looking forward to the tutorial! Well I hope I can get it done my next week… so stay tuned! May you all have a wonderful exciting fantastic amazing beautiful pleasant weekend!

Your name is required. Why?

  • So that I can address you personally (which I'm more than happy to do).
  • Everyone loves their name to be called, right? Nobody wants to be referred to as 'a certain someone' or Mr X (X-Men members aside).
  • If your post too much spam, your name will be imprinted on a personalised voodoo doll, completely free of charge. I'm just joking!

Your email is needed. Why?

  • Your email is, and will, never be given out to any third party under any conditions (except for people sneaking up behind me when I'm on WP admin).
  • So that I can contact you personally in case of certain issues that I wish to address personally.
  • If you post too much spam, I'll email the same spam you've posted 10 times back to you, completely free of charge.

You can always leave a personal URL behind

  • It can be anything - most people put their blog URL, their facebook page, their Twitter URL, their MySpace or etc.
  • I give love back by saying NO to no-follow. All of your webbie links are dofollows instead.

Twitter. Twitter. Twitter.

  • What is Twitter?: Twitter is a social networking and micro-blogging service that enables its users to send and read other users' updates known as tweets. Tweets are text-based posts of up to 140 bytes in length.

Hello Easter Egg hunter! You've discovered the magic of the Konami Code!

Yea. You probably know what the Konami code is before getting to this page. So now what? Here is a randomised YouTube video on my favourites list... which includes Rickroll, if you're luck enough to get it.

You are currently watching MythBuster's Rube Goldberg Machine. Loving it? You can even watch the video in its full screen glory :)
