Yes, Photoshop can be phun, but in this case, the pic came out of the camera like this. I just scanned the negative without any image manipulation. The Holga uses 120mm film, and advancing the film is solely at the discretion of the user. So...I shot one lion, then moved to shoot the lion on the other side of the entrance to the mausoleum without winding the film. By a happy accident the faces and manes were superimposed in an interesting way.

How wonderful! It looks like a ghost photo, as if that stone lion actually moved. Perfect in black and white.
