Great work everyone! A variety of "Seeing Double" techniques and concepts for sure which was the objective. I'm sorry a few of us (me included) couldn't pull off our concepts to add to the entries, but that's the way it works with some more technical things sometimes.

Jeff - Really nice reflection showing the trees/bench and its corresponding reflection. For consideration on this type of shot, maybe frame a bit differently or crop to remove the trash can?

Gina - Clearly a mirror reflection showing double of JT. Nice shot overall. I'm a fan of eyes as they draw you in. Maybe consider trying to incorporate more of the eyes in the future?

Duke - Ah, Seattle. I think I have that same shot in my archives somewhere. Great colors and certainly meets the objective.

Jennifer - This one literally had me seeing double.

Mark - Certainly two of something. But there's not quite enough context there for me to relate to exactly what it is.


I think overall everyone met the objective which is my first cut. Then it came down to the creative use of the concept narrowing it down a bit more. Yet I can only choose one and this time Jennifer gets the nod. Clearly met the objective, and my brain had to wrap itself around exactly how she pulled this off as it wasn't apparent at first. Was it a flash shot with movement/first or rear curtain sync? Was it a double exposure? Was it a slow shutter speed and in camera movement? Was it pure luck in timing to have two heads and one body?

Congrats Jennifer, you're on deck for #214.

Thank you Scott! While I could have done this in PhotoShop it actually is two cute raccoons trying to hide. I got lucky and saw them scuttle across the patio and climb up the tree. The did eventually find a tiny branch and slept there all day. About 6 pm I watched them climb down and head on their way into the woods.
 
Congrats Jennifer, I was rooting for your shot. Perfect for the assignment and cute to boot!
