Oh my, much excitement! The theme for this month might just be my favourite photographic thing ever!
If you’ve followed this blog for any length of time you’ll know that I use a whole range of creative techniques to pull myself out of creative blocks, to say something different, but first and foremost to relay a feeling rather than simply how a place or moment looks, for soft and dreamy qualities. Of all those techniques in-camera {double exposures} is my first and deepest love. There is not necessarily rhyme or reason why I chose DE when I do, I use it when my gut tells me to.
If you’re new to this technique, check out my {How To…Double Exposures} post HERE and give it a try!
I have multiple collections of double exposures, some of which you may have seen: Desert Heat, in which views of the desert are captured in such a way that the viewer can feel the depth and oppressive nature of the landscape; and Sunset Dreams, images of my husband and son enjoying the waves, using DE to capture dream-like nostalgia.
For today however, I wanted to share some favourites that you may not have not seen before.

Ceri I love these and you are so talented at creating these effects. My favorite (and it was a really hard choice) was the 4th one down. I loved the contrast between the dreaminess and the dark branch. Thank you so much as well for the tutorial, I am going to spend some time reading it.
Ceri I love all your images. I have also read your how to guide and look forward to seeing what else you advise on in the up coming months. I love you’re tree top image the most but truly all are just amazing!
The textures here are absolutely incredible. I love how your vision truly connects the images together to create stunning images that are not only gorgeous, but also leave the viewer lingering and longing for more. <3
