You have 11 Blending Modes.\u00a0These are great ways to adjust the way two images work together to make them blend more seamlessly. Some blending modes remove the black from an image; some remove the white; there are lots of different options, and they\u2019re definitely worth experimenting if your goal is to make a cool double exposure image like this one:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.pixlr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/tumblr_inline_npa6taKChW1rmon24_500.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-426\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.pixlr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/tumblr_inline_npa6taKChW1rmon24_500.png\" alt=\"tumblr_inline_npa6taKChW1rmon24_500\" width=\"500\" height=\"667\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<strong>A few tips for making a cool Double Exposure image\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Try black-and-white: Two black and white images or (one black-and-white + one color) are easier to combine than two color images.<\/li>\n<li>Silhouettes are ideal: Silhouettes are naturally great for making effective double exposure images. Don\u2019t have a silhouette handy?\u00a0You can turn a portrait of someone into something like a silhouette by playing with the contrast and lightness controls.<\/li>\n<li>Opposites attract: Some of the best double exposures juxtapose two images with opposing ideas. Check out the example we made using an image of two canoe guys combined with an image of a cityscape. Putting a cityscape underwater is unreal and fantastic. Use that kind of deeper meaning to your advantage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Join the challenge<\/strong><br \/>\nUse the hashtags\u00a0#pixlr #doubleexposure\u00a0to share what you edit for this challenge on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, etc. We\u2019ll be on the lookout across our social feeds for these hashtags all week long. The reward? Pure glory. We\u2019ll be featuring our favorites on our feeds through Sunday.<br \/>\n<strong>You can use more than just mobile<\/strong><br \/>\nYou don\u2019t have to just use Pixlr for iOS and Android for this challenge. Pixlr for Desktop has the same feature and you even have a bit more control in that app.\u00a0Our graphic design tool Pixlr Editor is even more powerful and can help you make spectacular double exposure images using layers and masks \u2014 although it does require a bit more skill.
