In this edition of the PSW we’re going to talk about Multiple-Exposure Impressionism. If your digital camera is capable of capturing multiple-exposures, it’s possible to create scenes that look like impressionistic paintings––complete with what appear to be thousands of tiny, delicate brushstrokes. If your camera is not capable of capturing multiple exposures, or if you desire the control that only Photoshop can offer, I’m about to show you a way to simulate the look of in-camera multiple exposure impressionism using Photoshop. Either way, I hope this technique will inspire you to create some truly stunning images.

    Mark, thanks for the clever multiple-exposure workbench for a non-Nikon owner and for the link to Dr. Brown’s services. This gives more control (I think) or at least an alternative than trying to wiggle the camera for those in-camera blurs. I hope you and your family have a grand holiday weekend!

    Like Mr. Grigsby, I appreciate the control of the layering process. I also see it as an alternative to camera movement shots. However, I’m frequently amazed at the effects which can be obtained via a long exposure (1/2 to 2 seconds) and a some camera movement. (Some examples at my website under Landscapes-Abstracts, Landscapes-Tapestries.)
