Hi nice work i love it. How do you add all of them using photoshop. I have no idea how to do it. Any tips?

Like the reflection of the car on the front of the trailer! Nice work, very creative.

Continued from below…

and then work tirelessly in the dark room dodging and burning to make a print that was not that similar to what he saw in real life. Ultimately, what is true or real is what is on the print. when you see one of my photos as a large 6′ wide print it is striking, you can see all the little twigs and pebbles on the ground, the rivets on the Airstream Trailer, and even the highlight and shadow side of each rivet. If anything it is hyper photographic I like to say.

Computography… I can’t find that word in the dictionary. I used to think that my self in the old days when I did a lot of complex double, triple and quadruple exposing on large sheet film (4×5″). The idea of” purest ” imagery that was all done in camera or non-retouched etc. Actually what is real photography? Ansel Adams would work meticulously exposing just precisely, developing in a very protracted manner (the zone system) to bring out the tones that did not exist in the original scene

This is more computography than photography.
If you could do it on a single exposure that would be something!

It’s Eric the photographer of this image. Yes. Mostly the ISO, F-stop and everything else was the same for all the images. I only changed the amount of time that I painted with light all the different frames on location.

Eric curry

how about ISO,aperture and diafragma one image must be the same with another image..?

wow ! great stuff !!!!!!!!!!

wow, would love to see all the layer masks for this. How many were or are there?

Hi: No new tutorial for software usage etc. But I do use Photoshop software to layer the images together. I also use Aperture to manage all the hundreds of images that I shoot on location. Basically I ( you can too) shoot lots of multiple exposures of around 10 seconds each and add them all together into a single photo.

The magic of photography!!!!!

oh man! great work!! Its far more better than HDR!!

Urs is really complicated, but the results really compensate the hard work.

Are you willing to please give a small tutorial on the software and how you got there please?

Great work!

This should be in Airstream enthusiast magazine.
