ack in the days when film was our only photographic capture method, I would make use of in-camera multiple exposure potential. I settled on two different techniques. In the first I would make two exposures, one in sharp focus and the second deliberately out of focus, each underexposed by a stop. This produced soft glowing ethereal images. In the second, I would make a series of underexposed images with the camera shifted slightly between exposures to create a blurred abstract with dominant features merged into broad shapes. These effects can be done with digital equipment by combining the multiple exposures post-capture in layers and adjusting layer opacity.
