How'd he do this?

Ok, since i cant figure out how to just show you the picture i'm going to have to describe it. My friend has a picture on one of his pages. I'd really like to know how he does it. But the thing is, it's one picture...but he's in it twice. in different positions. It's like someone took a picture of him in two places at once. But i know that cant be possible without Photoshop. How'd he do it.Can anyone assit me in this?
Thankyou

one possible way you can do it, and iv done it this way before, is to wait until night time - get in a dark room with a lightswitch. Then, stick your camera on a tripod and compose your shot with the lights on. Then, turn the lights off and set your camera for a 30 second exposure. Release the shutter and get your subject into position. Turn the lights on for about 1/2 a second, then turn them off again. Then, move your subject into a different position, turn the lights on for 1/2 second and turn them off again. You can repeat this as many times as possible in the 30 seconds. Try it and see what you come up with.

You can also do this in very low light, long exposure, and just move into the frame, then move again. You get a bit of ghosting on the move, but it's really quite cool!!

set the camera up on a tripod. put it on timer, then run into the picture and place yourself where you want to be. then take another picture with yourself in another position. put both (or more) pics in photoshop then layer one on top of the other (just copy the layer from one image and paste it on to a blank layer in the other image). then add a mask and mask out the area so your second self is exposed. the photoshop part goes very quickly, especially if you're not touching any of your clones.
hope this helps, i'll be happy to answer any of your questions.

I do this a lot in my photography.... In photoshop under "File", you will see New- Open- Browers ect... click New. this will bring up a box were you can pick the size of canvas you want to work with. I always do a 4x6 landscape at 300 Res - RGB and Contents white. once you've opened that pick the photos you want to work with and open them. With your lasso tool draw around what you want in the new canvas.
Making sure your Feather on the bar at the top of your page is on about 75. Take your move tool and drag the lassoed area to your new blank canvas. do the same with the next photo. Once you have it the way you want it go over it to blend the edges with the Eraser tool.
If the photos are to big when you drop them in the new canvas you will have to click on the blue bar at the top of each photo and bring the image size down form say 300 res to 200. you just have to play with it till you get it right.
hope this helped

Yeah I remember your shot f yourself using this technique. This is how you do it w/o the help of Photoshop. I recommend this one.
