Multiplicity fail :(

[Cory Waters]

I heard an interview on a podcast with this woman from Iceland: 
http://www.rebekkagudleifs.com/  One of her series of photos that gained 
her a lot of popularity is called Multiplicity.  In this series, there 
are multiple instances of a single person (usually the photographer 
herself) in each image.  I found the images interesting and decided to 
try one with my daughter Emily being the subject.  (here's the fail 
part)  I tried using the K10's multiple exposure mode and took five 
shots with Emily in a different place on the swing set in each.  The 
resulting image is a very nice shot of the swing set with no trace of 
Emily...  I suppose the camera averages out the scene.  In four of the 
five shots there is no Emily at any given location so the end result is 
no kid. I have to say, it was a little creepy to behold.   I'm sure the 
desired result could have been achieved in Photo shop but I was excited 
about the idea of doing it "in camera".  Bummer.
