Picture This! -- Our Next Assignment

Double Exposure
These days you can double expose in the camera, or in software later with some easy cut-and-paste techniques. Our Picture This! assignment is to create a double exposure that takes the best from both images, or that creates an entirely new figure/background relationship. You can do this in camera, or in software, your choice! This image is composed of two shots--one of a Mardi Gras "prop" and the other a doorway in the French Quarter, with the face pasted on like a poster on this posterized wall.
