Makes me wonder about doing something similar with a 620 folder. I love these kind of things. Huss has done a great job of composition. Beautiful.
I did it once by accident with my Lomo Belair (shoots 6x12 on 120). It ended up being extremely ironic because I was taking pictures of my then-partner at the pyramids at Teotihuacan. Two of the three frames had him in it, the third frame was just the pyramid without him in front. Subsequently he passed away. I printed a cropped version of it for his family to have without the blank third.This can be done with a Holga 120. I'm unsure if it can be done as well as Huss has done it. I did it by accident with three frames - just don't wind it on to the full extent necessary to separate the frames.
I've also done it accidentally with a 6x9 folder. Same deal. That one was only two frames and wasn't as horrible a waste of film as my Holga mistake was because I was documenting a house build and got the entire front of the building across two conjoined frames.
If memory serves, Lomo's Diana F+ gives specific instructions on doing this.
Again, though, you need Huss' artistry to get the results seen here!
Thanks for all the positive comments! I bought mine used off ebay where you can find them at about 1/2 the new price. It’s the kind of camera that is given as a gift or bought on a whim so is used once then put away… to appear on ebay.
Most are missing the half and square frames, which is not surprising as they are tiny little things. Lomo customer service came through for me and found me a set.
I have also done this sort of thing w an old Zeiss 120 folder - you need the kind of camera that uses the red window to index the film advance as you can then ignore that!
I used the Zeiss to create this image reflecting the madness of Venice Beach, California.
The advantage of the Lomo LC Wide is that it makes it very easy to do, and the auto exposure works really well. Before I was made aware of this camera I was going to modify a Kodak Ektar H35 (that new Kodak half frame camera) by cutting out/opening up the built in inner frame mask. So that is a possibility.
Just because an opinion can be shared doesn't mean it should be.
Fab LC-Wide photos, Huss.You could be Lomo’s ambassador encouraging sales.
Tempted to place an ad … Wanted $10 LC-Wide for personal use (I’m in the U.K. so £s would be more convenien).

Holga microclicks are another fun thing, based on the results I see in Flickr, eg photographer ’Experiments in dreaming’.
Yeah, disappointing that Leica didn’t enable multiple exposure.
It's not a question of multiple exposure per se, but being able to advance the film gradually, even if it is only in 1/2 steps.
There are plenty of MOSTLY early cameras --16mm, 17.5mm, 35mm, and 120 -- where the shutter is cocked separately from the film advance. Any of these cameras could be used to accomplish this approach -- partial film advance. (With reloaded 110 cassettes, this happened all the time, and is generally undesirable) And, of course, cameras with manual adjustment of the exposure might be helpful in certain circumstances.

Why is that?

Wonderful! Looks like a cross between Estes and Rauschenberg....(Times Square, 2004 R.E + Collection, 1954 R.R.)

With consistency.
That’s absolutely fantastic, but begs the question how the image was constructed.
I’ve not heard of Estes or Rauschenberg before… time for a Google I believe.
