 The Power

Using a model doll. And a framed picture, as well as some time exposure, created the illusion of walking through a wall.

This is a cool idea and was shot very well. I like the hand reaching through to the other side. IMO if the doll were replaced with a little girl- maybe "walking through" a door instead of a picture it might have improved the image. Always hard to find a good model though huh? :)

Interesting effect. Not sure I could have pulled it off..but it's not a particularly strong shot. I think you might have been going for some effect like the doll is walking through the picture but you didn't quite capture what you were going for. Don't get discouraged. Keep trying.

Okay, I get the point. But the image doesn't really grab me. It comes across as more of an accidental double exposure than an illusion. Maybe it's because the picture is at such a high angle I can't see what it is? Does it relate to the doll somehow? 4.

What a clever idea, and you have really tired to produce a "magical" illusion here.....

hmmm, a double exposure, but to what effect? I'm not sure what we are trying to be shown here. 4
