Photomerge in Adobe Bridge CS4
Everyone has seen those awesome multi-freeze frame photos of athletes doing their high-speed moves like this one of Dave Watson. Dave pulled off a stunt during the Tour de France, in the Alp d'Huez stage. He waited for the peloton to round the corner in the mountains and proceeded to literally jump over them. The good news is that he wasn’t arrested and thrown into jail. The bad news is that he didn’t land it.
I’ve always thought that the process to make a photo like this was long and arduous, requiring a film camera exposing multiple times on the same frame. But if that were the case, wouldn’t the photo turn out overexposed? The guys at Adobe answer the question. In Adobe Bridge CS4 there is an option called “Photomerge” that makes the process of creating an amazing action photo easy as buying tainted meat from McDonalds.
