Midweek Inspiration: Tierney Gearon, "Explosure"

Before Photoshop, there was the often accidental art of double exposing film. Tierney Gearon has turned double exposure into a very intentional, meticulous craft in her series "Explosure,"where she carefully composes beautiful images by layering exposures. The colors are vibrant and the result varies from surreal to necessitating a double-take to see where one photo ends and the other begins. Some of the photos present genuinely interesting juxtapositions.

This is a technique I've attempted with holgas and other film cameras, but the end result has never been this beautiful!
