 This is a muti-image all done in a single image. Just used coffee cups and incense and red led light.

Most images I seen give a ghosted effect, I try to stay away from that by changing my light source from left to right. This put ghosted part of my image in the shadows.

The far cup, first shot 15 second exposure, light source from the right, with lots of incense burning, used red led light above.

Second shot moved cup to the right and zoomed in, same light source from the right.

Third shot move cup to the left and move light source to left also and left the zoom in same position from second shot.

Last shot, move cup forward and zoomed back.

This camera allows you to look at each shot before you do the next, so if you make a mistake you can go back and retake it. By far this was my hardest shot ever. Was not going to enter because of the focus was soft, but I had so much smoke in the room, this maybe a factor of sharpness.

I had headache for two after this was done and my sinuses are still bugging me.

*note to self use more ventilation.
