Surely you've heard of double exposure. Or rather, have you seen it in a photo on Instagram or the Internet in general. And it is a really striking and curious photographic effect. With it you can cross two images in a single, without having anything to do with it. With analog cameras it happened due to carelessness or creativity of the photographer by not passing the film to take a new photo. Currently the effect is present in digital cameras, but not in mobile phones.Now an application allows you to create this effect with great detail. We mean Snapseed.
This is Google's photo editing application, available for Android phones and also for iPhone. A very capable tool with all kinds of editions: from cropping and changes in perspective and framing, to filters and color effects. Something to which is now added the effect of double exposure
How to apply it
The first thing is to have two photographs that you want to overlap. Do not forget that Snapseed does not have a camera function, so it is convenient to have taken them previously It can be through the mobile camera application or pass two photos taken with a better quality camera.
After uploading the main photo, Snapseed allows you to edit the screenshot with the pencil icon. Here you have to search among the effects for Double Exposure With this it is possible to select the second photo that will be merged with the original. To achieve this effect, the application has several tools inherited directly from analogue and digital photography. Thanks to these different blending modes it is possible to achieve a better result according to previous captures.
Of course, do not forget that the best double exposure effect is achieved with photographs that have high contrast and are usually in black and whiteSo use the rest of the options in this application to achieve a striking effect that matches both images, even if they have nothing to do with each other.
