Through the Viewfinder (TtV)

So...I've been lurking over at Andrea's blog for several years now & have completely fallen in love with this form of photography that she has been working on...see her awesome post here.

I am now the proud owner of a vintage Argus Argoflex Seventy-Five. (purchased from eBay for a total cost of $6.99...can't beat that kind of fun!) I outfitted it with it's funky cereal box/electrical tape tube contraption & off I went.

I practiced on my best-friend's kids & wow was it tricky. The backward image, the awkward way you have to hold the two cameras, moving subjects, lighting issues...but it was SO MUCH FUN!

I think I'm hooked.
