People used to (kind of) do this on film with landscapes, usually forest scenes, double exposure with one exposure slightly out of focus.

It's pretty incredible how much of Photoshop workflows are really film operations.

That’s because it was developed in the age of analog darkrooms (dodge, burn, etc.).

Even the name of the app was meant to help photographers transition.

It’s really amazing how completely digital photography has replaced film (not really surprising, though).

Film photography demanded a great deal of flexibility and adaptability from its practitioners; which, I suspect, is why they adapted to digital so well.

Some of us are back on the film bandwagon. :)
