Double exposure - ladders

Double exposure - Ladders

The original photograph before the double exposure experiment was created

This image was created from a sculpture on the Mexican Rivera waterfront taken during a previous holiday. Two cloaked hooded figures were hanging off the ladder waving to the passing ships with the sea and vivid blue sky in the back ground. The original photograph was mirrored and the resulting image flipped which gave a whispery shadow in the background that I thought spoilt the outcome

The Second image was again created using Photoshop to mirror one image on top of the other, but this double exposure is more subtle than the previous as the viewer only realises this when looking at the man caught at the bottom of the image. I especially like the way the man appears to be holding up the ladders as if suspended from his shoulders.
