Gargoyle and Shadow
Here is another image doing double duty for the Shadow Shot Sunday and the Monochrome Maniac memes. This is a garden gargoyle which usually keeps watch over our fishpond, but I moved him out to the porch to get this image. it's a through-the-viewfinder photo. I pointed an old Kodak Duaflex twin lens reflex camera at the gargoyle, then captured the image by photographing the Duaflex viewfinder with a Nikon D90 fitted with a 105mm macro lens.

Delightful gargoyle! And the shadow is so sharp! Terrific in monochrome!
Great shot! What's even better is your tecnique, one innovative way to photograph. RESPECT!!! And two thumbs up.
I love this technique, it is so cool. The shadow looks like the hand of something evil about to pounce...run away...neat shot!
A contemplative gargoyle--who would have believed such a creature exists without actually seeing it? Now that I see, I believe!
We just love it when we see the pictures through the viewfinders - they are so interesting! Love the gargoyle's shadow....love to know what he's pondering!
He looks like an introspective gargoyle. Great shot!
Your gargoyle really seems intent on watching your pond. Love the shadow you captured.
The gargoyle is wondering why you didn't put a film in the old TLR.
Good one! It seems abstracted in its own shadow.
