Camera and photography techniques PART 1

Double exposure 

Double exposure is a photographic technique where 2 photos are combined into a single image. With double exposure technique, you can create certain effects like ghost image, mirror image, or simply merging different things together.

 Both of these pictures are example of two different pictures been merged together. Both of these pictures will of also probably of been edited on photo-shop.

Sandwich Negs
 A sandwich print, it is an image made from printing two negatives at the same time. The end result will look like 2 pictures blended together which is a bit similar too what double exposure photos look like.

Solarization

1. Solarization is a phenomenon in photography in which the image recorded on a negative or on a photographic print is wholly or partially reversed in tone. Dark areas appear light or light areas appear dark.

Photogram

A photogram is a photographic image made without a camera by placing objects directly onto the surface of a light-sensitive material such as photgraphic paper and then exposing it to light. The usual result is a negative shadow image that shows variations in tone that depends upon the transparency of the objects used.

Photomontage

A photomontage is when 2 or more photographs are blended together. You can make photomontages and other edits on your photographs using programmes like photo-shop. Even a single photo cut up and re-ordered can be a montage. 

Painting with developer

painting with developer is when you expose your photo, and instead of putting the full thing into the developer you can get things like paint brushes and dip it into the developer and draw on you picture or you could get something like a squirt bottle and put plenty of developer in it and spray it over your picture. These techniques would give you something that look like the two pictures.

Scratching negs

Scratches on the emulsion side of a black-and-white film negative will show up in the photographic prints produced from such a negative as black lines. This is because such scratches remove the emulsion from the negative.
