Etsy Finds: Through the Viewfinder

Some days, the only thing that can get you out of bed in the morning is the image of a monkey on a bicycle.  That's how I came across JameSSpicer's gorgeous photography.  He uses a technique called "Through the Viewfinder" (TTV, to those in the know!), capturing his images with one camera looking through the optical viewfinder of a second camera.  The effect is sometimes beautiful, and frequently eerie or surreal.

You can see more photos created this way on Flickr, or learn how to take your own.  Thanks, James, for motivating me to get out of bed and dig up a second camera!
