Multiple Flash - Definition

Multiple flash is a technique that incorporates several flashes within one exposure. You will need either one flashgun that will fire several times, or several flashguns to fire at intervals. The resulting image will show several stages of movement, each lit up by flash.

Here is an example of a multiple flash image. From this image, you can see how she moved; starting with her arms by her side and moving them up before putting her hands together above her head. You can see four different positions in her movement, meaning the flash has been fired four times during an exposure of around 3 seconds.
