 Ten in-camera multiple exposures on a single file. Camera rotated 360 degrees during sequence of exposures. 

In-Camera Quadruple Exposures, Late June 2025

 

Both of these images was created with a Nikon D810 and a 105 njkkor macro, utilizing the in-camera flash as a fill-in to lighten the shadows and cunteract camera movement. The lens also has a vibration-reduction setting, which I used during these hand-held exposures in the late afternoon.

Late September, 2024: Memory over Time, Time over Memory

After having finished editing these two photos, I've come to the conclusion that they remind me of the way that a specific memory changes over time, just as the historical record changes as years go by,  and that things which once originally seem ideal and solid  inevitably become abstract and faded. or perhaps more gently and elegantly stated,  MY INEVITABLE REFLECTIONS UPON THE PARADE OF ENTROPY.
Both images were created using a +10 year old Nikon D7100 dslr (35mm 'cropped-format' or 'dx') and a 24mm lens of even earlier vintage. The top image, in black-and-white with its' magnificent  doubravatone finish, is a seemingly 'simple' in-camera, traditional, multiple (triple) exposure. The color image below is an in-camera 'image-overlay' of an in-camera triple exposure and an in-camera double -exposure. The D7100 produces 24 mb RAW files.These reproductions here of course are much smaller jpegs, by necessity.

Sleepwalkers (January 2024)

This is an image of somnambulists, sleepwalkers, engaging in an act of wish-fulfillment. This is simultaneously an image of two spiritual adepts engaging in the practice of "hidden knowledge" based rituals.

October 2022: Kansas Landscape

 This image of a landscape in Northeast Kansas was created on location, using the multiple-exposure function on a Nikon D810 with a 35mm lens. Two exposures were made in succession, with a 180 degree camera rotation between them. 

This is a Kansas landscape in miniature; this is an Imaginary Kansas.

Kansas Landscape, October 2020

 The tree which serves as the source image of this photograph stands alone in a carefully manicured suburban housing development. Its powerful, ancient, and mysterious presence does not seem diminished by its mundane surroundings; instead it appears to magnify its weird isolation within a theatrical, scripted space. As I left the golden fields surrounding this titan, I felt a malevolent presence as though this tree, and its family, is not happy with us.
