Keeping Busy

What better fool to feature on April Fool’s Day than myself?

Cloning involves taking several pictures of myself in a scene. You set the camera on a tripod, adjust the exposure and the focus, then pose yourself or your model in several different places. When you are done, you begin pasting layers one by one, keeping the newest layer in the background. You then erase the part of the background that contains the new person. I find it best to start with the rear-most figure in the foreground and then work my way forward, merging each new figure as I complete them until I am done.
