Knowing how to blend two images is a powerful skill. Not only can you blend two identical frames with different exposures to create the perfect picture, you can also combine different images to create visual stories and artful pictures.
Overlaying two different images to create an expressive artwork requires imagination and technique. Choose a photo with a solid subject and one with a textured scene and create a story. A double exposure effect helps you create a strong narrative and approach a difficult subject.
If you know how to blend photos, you can easily add texture to an image. You don’t have to rely on image editors to do that for you or to supply the texture. You can take your own texture photos and blend them into other images.
By blending two images and using a masking tool, you can change the background of an image. Some photographers use this method to have both an interesting foreground and an interesting background.
