Oh well, Andre, too much dealing with guitars, amps, overdrive, and digital delays for a fat sound, you see, though the old good echoplex still does much better than any digital delay equipment around. But it is simply out of $-range for me, and so I try to create its sound... the visual way! ;-)
So name this one, "Poor man's echoplex"! ;-)
Cheers,
Nick

E 'pił il doppio rispetto alla esposizione a fuoco, Simone, ma comunque molte grazie per il bel commento.

Interesting to read the musical analogy Nick :) I see what you mean. I also see that I was not correct with the "motion blur" term. I like that "echo" explanation for the feeling of the double exposure. Andre

Thank you very much for the nice comment, Andre!
It was more the double exposure (one frame much less exposed than the other) that made it look like a motion blur, though not perfectly so. (Too weak light paths between the two shifted frames.) But it is perhaps this kind of "echo" of the main frame without much "hall-effect" between it and the "echo" that results in tension. There is however also some smaller amount of motion blur on both single frames of teh double exposure.
On a parallel to electric guitar, one can use the hall-effect that in a way sustains the sound for some certain time, and creates a "continuous full" feeling. Or one can use a single echo after some certain time, which acts rather like a "discrete full" feeling - it repeats the phrases after some period of time without adding anything inbetween. It sounds like ringing bells or something similar - and that is a main element of the sound of Eddie Van Halen and his two old good echoplexes ;-)
Oh well, I am going to infinity again. ;-)
Best wishes,
Nick

The image is full of tension Nick! Exactly the way you planned it to be. This is a textbook example of how to use motion blur for effect (and for a reason) It is almost as if the clocks are in a race with eachother. Andre

Thanks a lot for the nice commet and your time, Edlira.
Thanks heavens I don't have a "rushing life" anymore. These are the images I took some years ago, while having to run every day, and while wondering if it meakes any sense to follow such a running way of life. Most images, however, were taken by simply stopping, observing the situation and the scene carefully, and trying to get as deatched as possible form that run.
So, in a retrospective consideration, perhaps the series also represents my questioning of those days, if I should continue or if I simply should jump off that speedy line whatever might happen after that.
Best wishes,
Nick

Thanks a lot again for the enthusiastic comment, Jimmy.
I had to slow down for this one, though, like I did with many other images of this series. I had to stop and take a look, being rather detached from what was happening, just standing there and observing in order to be able to see something. In a hurry I assume that I wouldn't have seen anything.
All the best,
Nick

having a quick look at you latest photos I can sense that you yourself have a kind of a "rushing" life (if that makes sense to you) all the photos have that moving motion! I really like this one in particular, another story telling & suggestive capture! cheers E

stress depicted, artistically though,the double exposure here gives a sense of an awkward attepmt to hurry up ( deliberate choise of course, well done for this feeling):).Seven.
