Reflection Intruding

I was taking a picture through a window and the sky was behind me.


This image reminds me of a double exposure.Years ago, I traveled to Florida to take a short course taught by Jerry Uelsmann, master of the double exposure. He did amazing things with photo manipulation, long before digital photography was invented.

    ...I remember when a double exposure was a mistake.

    For some double exposure means they screwed up, for others it’s an art form.

    I was a student in the College of Art at the U of FL when Jerry Uelsmann taught there. I only took beginning photography so had a grad student as teacher (who was his student). But got to see many of his works in gallery shows! Wow! As well as the works of others of his students.

    This is a wonderful reflection which made me look carefully at your photo. You have caught two views of reality.

    Parfois le fantastique s'introduit dans la réalité, et nous fait perdre nos repères
