Woodpecker and the Moon

I'm not sure if this works as well as I wanted.

Ok, it is not for real - I combined 2 images in camera on the OM-1. This gave a RAW file which I then did an in-camera image edit on to make it B&W and change the levels getting a "SOOC" JPEG file.

I tried it out after watching this video by Thomas Eisl - there is some interesting stuff you can do with the image overlay including an HDR technique (it creates a RAW file this way, unlike the actual HDR function).

I can probably do a better version using proper PP techniques on the Mac. The in camera compositing really needs a "darker pixels win" option - the opposite of LiveComp.

Great image.

Thanks for sharing the video I never realised what was possible. Thomas Eisl explains things very clearly.

I must give it a go.

Thanks for sharing. I've had a go at multi exposures in camera before, but not like this. This is very powerful and you have the luxury of taking the images separately first.

I like it.

Thanks all. Sometimes it’s fun to mess around with things in camera without having to touch an actual computer!
