92163516.4n76HjMU.jpg


and how do i go about making one.

any help would be great

thank you
 
Hi there.

I don't see any image.....
 
OH why do i fail lol

Can anyone see the image at all from the link?
 
I can see the link. As cyclone says it's a composite. It's several photo's of a sequence that have been merged (in this case it looks as though the clone tool has been used to copy the area of interest) onto a single image.
 
I can see the image to. I'll have a go of posting it, although I have no idea what this image is! Interested myself.

ok thanks for the replies everyone.

so to make that type of photo i have to take a photo of a moving object and use a tripod, then merge them images together?

i have photoshop cs4, but cant work out how to merge them lol :(
 
Its taken with a camera that can shoot 9 frames per second.

Its assembled in layers in Photoshop.

1 layer is the background and possibly one bike
the others contain just the bike only (rest photoshopped out) and they are layered on top of the original

Then it is flattened to make a single image.
 
Ah ok, i thought it was done like that by cutting bits out.

i had a quick go

Yeah its pritty simple. Put the camera on a tripod and switch it to continous fire mode. Use manual mode to keep the exposure the same and then fire away. To merge them I use photoshop, open one image as the base image, then open each other image, copy all, paste onto base image, quickly draw around the bit you want to cut out, copy, paste and then delete the full version of that layer. Obviously you need a camera with high frames per second if the object is close and moving fast, or you can step back and space the photos out a bit. 2 things you need to be careful of are shadows and background movement such as the trees swaying. I don't like the one you posted because half the bike is missing. When I do it I make sure you space the photos out enough to fit each photo in without overlapping the bike or whatever you are photoing.

Heres one I did recently:
