SUMMARY

Adam Gibbs demonstrates a deliberate, controlled multiple exposure technique to transform burnt trees in Waterton National Park into abstract, painted-like landscapes. He uses a geared head for precise micro-adjustments rather than random camera movement, with the Fujifilm GFX100S allowing up to eight exposures in-camera. Gibbs favors the 'average' blending mode and notes that the final combined image is saved as a JPEG, not RAW. The wildfire-scarred terrain provides strong graphic patterns and repetition ideal for this technique, even in less-than-ideal lighting conditions.
