Seeing Double

I recently decided to try out some of the classic film tricks and one of the ones I wanted to try was some unpredictable double exposures but rather than just take two photos at a time I ran a whole roll of film through a camera then loaded it back into the cartridge but not all the way so I would be able to pull it back through and shoot it a second time.

The thing I love about this is that I was not the one who shot the roll the second time through. After I shot the photos on the roll I gave the camera to my brother to shoot through the second time. So two different perspectives on the world captured in one place. Its kind of like folding time. I love the abstract and interesting things that happen when shooting like this and I will be doing this again with other people in the future! At any rate, I posted a few on flickr but I thought it would be nice to post them here as well plus a couple extra that did not make it to my flickr stream

    Funny idea, I especially like the second and the third one – with the bubbles in his face ;-)
