This month Janet of @wiredtothemoon_ selected the theme {Double Exposure}. This month has been kind of crazy for me starting out with a baby shower early January and then going into caregiver mode for Luka for the last 7 days as we waited for our new grand daughter to arrive. Thankfully she did safely on Monday and it is now Wednesday afternoon and they are home already.
However, that left me struggling for time to head out and take pictures, so I went back to my Australia images (half of them I have not edited yet) and decided to work with them. So here is some of the images I came up with for the {Double Exposure} theme.
I loved this image of this guy sitting on random steps and I combined it with a sunrise over Sydney Harbor. This was another favorite – we went for a walk in the countryside to a designated hike. In this instance I combined looking up to the top of the trees with the waterfall we came to see during the hike.Another image from our hike was the beautiful river scenery and a random green plant. It was so lush and green. This is the last image on our hike and I just loved the rich vibrant colors. I was determined to get the Sydney skyline on the day we did the ferry trip to Manly. What better image to combine it with, than the famous Sydney Opera House. Like a lot of places the city life and farm life are not that far apart. The main image was taken at a garden park in Melborne, and the second image of the cows was taken about 1 hour out of Melbourne. On our road trip to the Great Ocean Road we stopped in Mornington. It was a great little town with these tiny shed type structures that had been built. It reminded me of the changing rooms at Brighton. Apparently the people who own them store their beach stuff in them so that when they want to go to the beach, then everything is there. Driving the great ocean road we stopped at a couple of beach points to check out the surfing. This is kind of nostalgic for me because when I first met Richard he was so into his surfing. Kangaroo’s were something I really wanted to see, and we were fortunate to get a glance of this big guy one of the days. I combined this image with the ocean that we had just visited when we saw the kangaroo. These two images were taken along the great ocean road in the vicinity of the 12 Apostles and at the The Grotto. This one of my favorite areas to visit.
{Double Exposures} are fun to play around with and while I have never done it “in camera” I love the idea of playing with images and combining them.
This is a circle blog and as I mentioned, we have some very talented artists in the group. Take some time to follow the links and see what they have for you this month. My incredibly talented friend Janet of @wiredtothemoon is up next. I can’t wait to see what she has to share. You can see more of her work by clicking on her Instagrampage.
