Double Exposure

Background

Double exposure layers two images for metaphor—memory over present, city over face. Align meanings, not just shapes. Keep one layer dominant so poetry doesn’t become mud.

Prompt

Includes camera move matched to the title, plus lens triad extras: focal length, aperture/T-stop, ISO, shutter, white balance, and the story being filmed.
