This is a continuation of my initial experimentation with in-camera multiple-exposure images.

Multiple Exposure Fall – Part 1
In addition to experimentation with a fisheye lens this fall, I also dabbled with in camera multiple exposure techniques, which offers many possibilities. My results were mixed, ranging from images that I liked to those that were total failures. It appears that I have much to learn about this photographic technique and I will continue working this.
I used only two images and an average of the pixels for all of these images, as that seemed to be a reasonable and simple starting point. More images can be used and there are other options of how the images are combined in camera.
In this series, I will share the images that I think worthy, even if some are not so appealing.
Before I ventured out for an intensive photo shoot, I began by making simple images around our cabin.
I began with the simplest of images, such as the one above with horizontal and vertical images.
Then I began to incorporate ICM (intentional Camera Movement) in at least one of the images.
Sometimes, I just moved the camera a little between shots, to get such images as Multiplying Leaves and Picasso Forest.
Another technique is to shoot the same scene with the first shot a simple, sharply focused image, then completely defocusing the image to a complete blur for the second image. I had most difficulty with this method, but still got a few good images.
The yellow and brown color around these leaves is created by the fully unfocused image of these leaves.
More multiple exposures to follow,

Indiana Fall 2023, Part 26 – Abstract Images
One day at the cabin, I went out into the area around the cabin to shoot some scenes that had caught my eye due to the lighting on another day. However, today the light was not the same and the shots of those previously interesting looking scenes were not interesting.
My stroll around the area eventually led me into a wooded area behind the cabin and I still was not getting any interesting images. So I decided to try getting abstract images via intentional camera movement (ICM), a technique that I seldom use.
Usually, the most interesting images can be obtained via vertical camera movement with trees as the subjects. But I did manage to get a few interesting images by panning the camera horizontally.
I think the monochrome version works best for this horizontal panning motion.
