270 Images at f/4 -20sec - ISO1600 Canon 700D

This single shot, long exposure was a quick run and gun ordeal on a super calm night on the harbour with low cloud cover causing the lights in the suburb across the way, just down the path from the last stop of the bus when I fell asleep and ended up going past my stop. Tried to edit it to be more grungy to create a darker mood than my previous edits which I think turned out quite good. The mood evoked from the calm sea, the reflection of the lights on top of the colour pallete and the portrayal of the subject faded out and walking away.

I wanted to add an aspect of graphic design to one of my images with an idea of trying my hand at developing branding. I started planning this image way earlier in the semester but only figured out the look and feel of the piece while working on editing another project for an elective. Really drawn to a teal and orange vibe again but thought I went a bit strong on the vibrance and saturation. I ended up going back and editing this again to make it mobile friendly and less overkill on the color pallete.

My favourite double exposure of the series. Composed of a shot from some rocks at the beach mixed with a still from out the window after staying late in studio. Masking and feathering definitely could use some further touching up but overall quite pleased with the tone of the image. 

Second attempt of editing in Photoshop for double exposure. Composed of another shot from Tongariro screened with a night shot from the lights by my bus stop in town. The masking and feathering of the edge was not up to scratch but this is the first edit I actually did mid commute on my laptop track-pad so I'm actually surprised how clean it looks, well on my phone at least. this would be the first proper Creative Commute I guess.

Somehow not sick of time-lapses yet and wanted to try my skills out with shooting a moonrise. Poor fuel tank awareness and traffic meant I missed the start and didn’t have time to fine-tune the exposure and timing. Tried to fix the RAW files in post but just wasn't happening with the moon being overexposed  but the rest being under exposed. tried a graduated filter in LightRoom but the clouds passing made it too jarring and I wasnt exactly keen on doing it frame by frame. Need to invest in some filters ut again the Teal and Orange on city lights is one of my favourite looks.

Thought it was about time to mix things up a bit and thought I try learn a bit of photoshop. This is my first attempt at creating a double exposure Image and I feel that this looks good on mobile for social media but when viewed on a larger screen the colours and exposure aren't quite as well blended as I would have liked. The composition is of a Night long exposure pointed at a motorway and floodlit sports field pulled out of focus stacked on to a photo taken last year tramping the Tongariro N-Circuit.
