Challenge: Diagonal (Basic Editing)
Camera: Canon EOS-10D
Lens: Canon EF 28-80mm f/3.5-5.6 II
Location: in my home
Date: Nov 27, 2006
Aperture: f/6.7
ISO: 800
Shutter: 10 sec
Galleries: Still Life, Black and White
Date Uploaded: Nov 27, 2006

 I used a small halogen flashlight to bounce light off the ceiling. My hands were removed after 6-7 sec of the 10sec exposure to get the ghost effect.
Shot as a jpeg with adjustments in levels and curves, and partial desat of reds and yellows using hue/sat adj layer. Hot pixels were cloned out and black/white border added.

nice idea, but more richer colors could have made it more captivating. im a novice to give any advise, but how about experimenting with the midtones?

How was this captured without post-editing? Is double exposure possible with a digital camera?
