slipping through our fingers





These photographs by Maggie Lochtenberg are so crazy beautiful! I love the deliberate use of double exposures with all the amazing shapes and colours. The word "dreamy" is one that I sometimes overuse, but that's really the best way to describe these. Dreamy dreamy dreamy.

    These are so stunning! The colors remind me of old Polaroids I found in my grandma's photo-albums. So wonderfully nostalgic, thanks for sharing her unbelievable work with us!

    Check out my blog if you get a chance, too, please darling. I'm a big fan of yours ^____^

    I remember being completely blown away by her photography when I first came across her on flickr. That last one is an all-time favorite! She has completely mastered the art of double-exposure.

    I love double exposures, too. I've always wished I played around with them more in my high school photography class. I miss working in a dark room.

    Thank you for sharing these. I'm looking forward to checking out her flickr.

    These are gorgeous. Very dreamy indeed. I'd seen the last one floating around the internet for a while now, but it never clicked that it was a double exposure!

    I love her photos as well, theres such a great richness to film photography that digital can't capture.
