Double Exposure & Image Blending Mode
 merging multiple images.
Double exposure photography refers to merging multiple images. The goal is to make them surreal, emotional, or humorous. They usually feature silhouettes.Double exposure effect may look complicated at first.
1.Using the Tilt-Shift Effect

If you want to be extra creative, blur one of your photos instead of the entire image. Or blur everything except for one important detail.
To add this feature, go to Filter > Blur Gallery > Tilt-Shift.

2. Create fake reflection
Have  many ways you can create reflections. 

3. Experiment with simple portraits and details textured
Combining something plain with something complicated will give a balanced result.

4. Convert your results to Black & White
A lack of colour will strengthen the emotions in your double-exposure images. 

5. Work with silhouette
Many double exposure photographers choose to work with silhouettes.

6. Pick two random photo
The random process makes sense. Many double exposure photographs are happy accidents. But they lead to great feedback and even greater creative growth.

7. Make simple objects look fascinating
Take pictures of everyday items that you usually take for granted. This technique will enhance your imagination.

8. Use Shadow
Any type of silhouette is great for double exposure photography.You can do anything you want with this type of silhouette.
PHOTOSHOP : Blend Modes
Working with blend modes is almost always an experimental process. Because it’s nearly impossible to predict the results, you always seem to end up experimenting with different modes and Fill Opacities until you get the results you’re looking for.

Reflection

This project was fun but challenging. I needed to be skilled enough to operate the software. Especially for the task of preparing a poster for the competition, I needed to express my ideas clearly and show them through the poster.
