When Salome danced for King Herod, there’s some controversy about the number of veils she used in her dance. But there is no controversy in these images: I created them with one beautiful woman and one piece of white fabric and in-camera multiple exposures on a black background. The composition was not changed in Photoshop, although I did routine cropping and processing, and added a texture.

You can see some of the other images I’ve made using similar techniques in these stories: Falling; Wheel of Life; Dance in the Rings; A Rorschach for MFAs and Multiple Exposures. Also check out the Multiple Exposures portfolio page of these images!
