Simple optical illusions such as this combine near and far subject matter that seem to share the same distance to camera.

Title: Reflection of St Peter’s

Both the old and the new can be brought together in different layers by using reflections in the urban environment.

Layers, reflections and multiple exposures

Layers created by reflections allow photographers to project more than one meaning or interpretation to their image while at the same time inviting the viewer to perhaps switch between messages.

The degree to which different layers of meaning or intent become apparent can be harnessed by a skilful photographer to create a sense of depth. It is a delicate process and the photographer must ensure that the image does not become muddy or indistinct. Careful judgement is required in order to attain an image that is not too complex or unreadable.

Multiple exposures have always fascinated photographers of a more haptic nature and have been used from the earliest beginnings of photography. Used successfully, multiple exposures can create an impression of depth as the eye switches between the exposures. However, one must bear in mind that if the result of such conglomerations are too random or unsuited, confusion and frustration can often result.
