This is just a test....

Not sure if this belongs in Post Processing or General Photography.
If it's there, I need to try it: My recently acquired Nikon D5000 has an in-camera retouch menu. One of the options is image merging. It combines 2 selected photos and merges it into one new RAW file.

Here is the one that gave me the best result. It sure does not work on all pictures, but some results are really surprising!

I did that lots of times with my old film camera, but never on purpose.

Hi, Kristianna,

This is something I always thought was a bit of a gimmick but having seen this I will have to try it out.

WOW!
I am sure very few people must have tried in-camera re-touching. & this is wonderful.

Of course it's a gimmick - But since this camera is still so new to me, I had to give it a try.

What a great effect, I use Canon so cant do this in camera but it's given me the idea of trying it out in photo shop with portraits? I'm sure it's been done before but it looks real cool. Thanks for posting it.

PhotoShop of course will give you a lot more flexibility for effects like this - The in-camera blending does not allow for opacity change or repositioning (at least I don't think so - got to RTFM to find out for sure).
