I know I misspelled the word "haunted" and I apologize. I didn't realize it until after the posting deadline ended. A lot of you asked how it was done: OK, Here is how it is done. First set my camera to the settings described above. I used low lighting in the room (100W table lamp at about 10'.) As soon as the shutter is opened the flash was executed, (on the G1 if the flash is on it will happen automatically) right after the flash is over have the subject hit the floor and get out of the frame quick. Try it, this technique has been around for a very long time for film users.
I saw this on photosig and it inspired me to try it myself. I came out with quite creepy effect with the angle the flash reflected my legs so it looks like I'm a legless ghost. good job
One of the better photos this week. Well conceived and well executed photo. The lights on the girl are done very well. Very ghost-like if there is such a term or thing. Nice shot! - 8 - Inspzil
This is a good photo...but, I wonder how the effect was done without photo shop or another similiar program. My vote is based on this not being altered...but, I still wonder how it was done.
Hey Paul, great shot! Saw this on photosig last week. Love the effect, and the way you have given her a blue tone is great. Angle cropping, lighting. all nice. Wonderful job. ~hbunch7187~
I don't know how you did it but if it's legal, it's amazing! Terrific attention to detail, even the black cats on the night gown and her expression is perfect. The only thing is I think it is "haunted" house. Still a perfect 10!
great photo. really well used effect. I think it could be improved by the girl wearing plain white clothes rather than with the cats on, but still a very good photo. 10 - Konador
Excellent double exposure. I wish I could see a bit more of the top of her head. I will look forward to the details. Speaking of details...you may want to get the Spell Checker out and "Hunt" for Haunted. DPz
An exlelent photograph, I think the transposition is exelent. Its a shame the subjects head seems to be slightly imbeded into the top of the alcove but the angle in which she is posed in helps to negate this impession. a 9.
Long exposure time, two lights. First a shot with a white light, turn off the white light move the girl in place, turn on a black light all while long exposured. Am I right? Good job, very erie. -crabappl3
this is so cool, love the ghostly cast on the girl. your use of color is excellent. the only thing that bothers me is the top of the fireplace that cuts off her head.
