Faceless Portrait

In one of photography blogs, I have read, to improve your street photography skills.. you have to come up with projects like 100 or 50 stranger's portraits either in stealth mode or with permission. I decided to to shoot 10  portraits of strangers in one day, I asked couple people to pose for me, and they happily did.

I shot below image without asking him, I liked this image because it's faceless portrait. I shot this image in very low light condition, so i had to bump-up my ISO to 800 and exposure compensation to +7.



Focal Length : 55 mm, Shutter Speed : 1/80 of a sec, f stop(Aperture) : f/5.6, ISO : 800, White Balance : Auto

Double Exposure

Almost all higher end Nikon cameras have Multiple Exposure functionality in-built. I used Nikon D7000 to get the below image.

Enable multiple exposure and take two different exposure, your camera will overlay these images for you. I took picture of myself with white background, and second image was of palm trees. Used Photoshop to get rid of unwanted palm trees from white background. 

And here is the result.... Don't worry, if you have entry level Nikon DSLR, you can still achieve this, using Overlay function. Little effort is needed. check this out Multiple Exposure hack in Nikon D3100
