I've searched for quite some time now, and I figure someone on here knows right where it is....
It's in a bathroom and multiple shots have been put together to make it appear as though the same persone is there several different times. And there's another in a church....
Thanks,
Kevin |

That is Kiwiness(Gary) stuff:
  
Better favorite them before you lose it again :P

Wow...those are SO freaking cool!
Does anybody know his particular method for doing those?
Tripod...multiple exposures...paste...eraser tool???

Ever wonder what happened to all those clones?
Well ...

Best way to find out is to PM the creator now you know who it is. Chances are you're only going to get second guesses by asking here in the thread. |

You're right!
How would anyone out there....go about doing this type of project or more specifically, the post processing?

There are at least half dozen ways to do this.
The easiest for me:
1) Take 2 pictures without moving the tripod of a guy in two chairs.
2) Open both pictures and copy/paste picture 1 onto picture 2. Picture 1 becomes a layer.
3) Set the layer opacity to 50% so you can see the guy in picture 2 (background).
4) Erase the new layer (picture 1) where the guy is sitting to show him through.
5) Set the opacity back up to 100%
6) Flatten, save.

Here's another one :)
I wrote what I did on one of the photos actually, I'll copy and paste it here:
Basically you put your camera on a tripod and use the timer to take photos in all different positions. In Photoshop you put all the photos into layers and on each photo cut out what you want to see with the pen tool. Make a vector mask out of the current path and do the final fine tuning before you rasterize it. I usually then use the other/minimum filter on the mask and then a slight gaussian blur so that the edges don't look cut out at all. Do that to each level, merge all together and Bob's your uncle :)
It takes a lot of time and messing around but the finished product usually makes it all worth it :) |

Thanx so much for the tutorial. I never use the pen tool or vector masks so I'll need to give that a whirl to see what's up.
I probably would have just copied, pasted, erased and blurred out the edges.
I'll give a try over the weekend. Again thanx.

There's no pen tool in Photoshop Elements. I'm currently working with a trial version of PSP9 - haven't decided yet whether to buy it as I also want to upgrade Elements to Elements 3 (of which I've also got a trial version). Do you know if this will work in PSP9? Or Corel Photopaint, of which I've got a really old version which I hardly ever use.
Edit: Just wanted to add, I really love that photo with the 4 brides. Added it to my favourites.

Gary,
Those images are awesome! I bet it's rewarding to have a whole thread dedicated to your photographs.
If you ever decide to post an official tutorial on this method, I, for one, would be thrilled.
Cheers, and keep up the good work,
Roxanne |

I thought kiwiness either posted that word with a speech impediment or he was typing while drinking. The word reminded me of something Gabby Johnson from Blazing Saddles would shout out.
Post what you find about rasterize and ranks in adrance for the rinfo.

vector images are shape images. anything macromedia flash is a vector graphic, for the most part. they are scaleable without loss of quality both larger and smaller.
i'm not sure why kiwiness is using them in this case though.
rasterizing is basically creating a normal graphic from the vector, and losing the scaleablity at the same time.
correct me if i'm wrong ;}

I've done it! It's pretty rough, but it was fun, frustrating, and exciting to do. Thanks so much kiwiness. |

I tried a lot of methods and using vector masks together with the minimum and gaussian filters was the best way for me to create realistic images. But as Mavrik already stated, there are many ways to get to the same result. |
