When Day meets Night

In the picture below, The sun was there, but all light pods of the bridge was on.



How do we put day and night together?

I have made use of a photographic technique called double exposure.

Please prepare the following ingredients for the magic first:

1) Set up a tripod and put your camera on to it

2) Shoot, shoot, shoot and shoot in day time or sunset, but do NOT move your camera

3) Continue to shoot or wait until night comes without moving your camera

4) Take some photos for the beautiful night scene, but keep your camera in the same position

Then... it's time to do dark magic which is Adobe Photoshop.

5) Open your Photoshop

6) Open one of your daytime photos

7) Open another photo which was taken during night time

8) Go back to the daytime photo and place your night-time photo on a new layer

9) Now the first layer is your daytime photo and the second layer is your night-time photo

10) Change the mode to "Lighten"

11) Adjust the Contrast, Colors and Level if required

12) Yeah! Here you go!

Where are those wonderful clouds?

In next lesson, I will teach you how to put clouds into the photo to make the magic hour prettier.

As you can see, double exposure can turn your dull photos into fantastic pictures.

Go and practice now!
