Capturing the Landscapes of His Youth: Jarred and Displaced by Christoffer Relander
We’ve looked at double exposure photography many times before (here and here and here), but we’ve never seen analog work quite like this arresting series, Jarred & Displaced, by Finnish photographer Christoffer Relander.
