How to produce a picture like this?

[Joshuashaw]

Tried to post in the tutorial, how to etc forum? but got a screen telling me I don't have the priviledges. I don't know.

But I was wondering how to produce a photo like this, or does anyone have any links for a page that could explain this type of photo.

I think it's something to do with continuous shooting for a few seconds while the subject is in motion what your wanting to photograph, then something to do with manipulating it on photoshop when your back home.

Any help much appreciated.

Its a montage of 5 or 6 seperate exposures. 5 or 6 layers with one acting as the main background and then layers of the bike in flight but with most of the photo erased

The tutorials section is for people giving tutorials, not those asking for one.

the easiest way i can think of would be to set it up on a tripod, shooting continuously at fast shutter speed and then putting each image on a new layer on photoshop and just erasing the bits on the higher layer that block the bike on the layer below...if that makes any sense what-so-ever!

or cut the bike in the photoshop, paste it couple of times and rotate it on the original image

could be wrong but it looks like two of the bike shots have been used twice ....does that make sense:bonk:

dino... look at my post above. thatd be the way if the bikes look the same.

Hi first and third shot look the same, sport shot with photoshop my guess?

It is just 6 images layered on top of each other.

Yes it is. All the bikes in the shot are different. (You can tell by looking at the rider's posture.)

I was thinking it could of been the use of layers, copying, rotating & pasting the bike would of look out of place too obviously.

I did this a few weeks ago.

This is three bikes in close formation:

Next I took 9 rapid shots of one bike, I cut the bike from each photo and pasted it onto the first shot. I used the buildings as point of reference and tweeked the bikes so that they matched.
