I'm so glad that my video can be inspiring, that's why I'm doing this in the channel. Thanks a lot for the support, Jessica 🙌🙌

Your images are very beautiful Kurt. I'm such a fan. I like the concept of the time blend. But strictly speaking this is also compositing since it's not done in camera but in software. According to Oxford the meaning of the verb composite is to "combine (two or more images) to make a single picture." Whatever we call it we can agree the result is breathtaking. 👍💯

Thanks for stopping by and having the discussion. As long as you edit digital photos, that's a kind of level of composite, these days who doesn't edit their digital photos? Here I'm talking about my understanding of time blending, it's not necessary to be the same as your understanding. As I explained in the video, I have a boundary, it has to be my own photos taken during the same time period. Composite can be a much wider concept, I can use your photos in my images, that's not my understanding of time blending. Again, good to hear different options here, that's what we need in this channel. Thanks again 🙏

Thanks Kurt - another tool to add to the kit bag !

Hello Kurt, I just watched your timeblending video and I am impressed by the idea and by your very clear and understandable explanation. I feel motivated to try myself and enhance my own photography experience with this new element. Unlike Artificial Intelligence, this is real creativity and editing skills by the photographer. Thank you very much. Norbert (from Germany)

Hi, my friend, thanks so much for watching my video and so glad it can bring you a bit of inspiration, that's why I made this video. Hope you will try it and get some beautiful photos 🙏🙏

Nicely done. Love the subject. Any reason why you opted not to use layer masks to achieve the blend? Is there an advantage to copying to the new layer?

@kurt.wang.photography

Thanks so much for watching my video! Actually layer masks can do the same job too, it really depends on the situations and personal preference. In this case the light conditions didn't change much, and I wanted to have more control of the surroundings of the trains.

Hi Kurt, Thank you very much for such an informative video. May I ask - would you use the same method in PS if you needed to blend different parts of two images to allow for motion blur. For example, a shot of a waterfall - you want the water taken with a long exposure to capture the motion, but you want to freeze the leaves/trees surrounding the waterfall (which are moving due to wind). In that example, would you use the brush tool to blend in the relevant sections of the image into the base photo layer? Many thanks, John

Hi, John, Thanks so much for watching my video and reaching out to me! Very good question, actually I often process my waterfall photos by using time blending method too. Basically you need to take 2 photos, first take a fast shutter speed shot to avoid the movement of leaves, then take 2nd shot at a long exposure speed to capture the silky water. Then you can align these 2 photos in Photoshop, use the fast shutter speed shot as the base , and then blend in the silky water from the long exposure shot, in this way you will have a perfect shot for both water and leaves. I do have a plan to make a video about this topic in future so I can show you more details. Again, a very good question!

@@kurt.wang.photography Thanks Kurt, I will certainly keep an eye out for your video. Good tip about using the fast shutter image as the base and then blend in the water to it. 🙏

hi Kurt, once you have finished adding each train to your main image, do you select all the layers and flatten them to create one final image?

@kurt.wang.photography

Hi, Robin, I suggest you multiple selected the base layer as well as the other layers with added and selected trains, then right click, and then select "Merge" layers

I presume the aperture setting for all he photos are the same.

@kurt.wang.photography

Yes, they are the same, this is to make sure the depth of fields in each photo are the same.

Although these are amazing methods, a photo that can not be viewed with a naked eye loses its authenticity
