Challenge: Hidden Gem 3,000 (Archival) (Standard Editing*)
Camera: Nikon D610
Lens: Sigma 15mm f/2.8 EX Diagonal Fisheye for Nikon
Date: Aug 10, 2017
Aperture: 5.0
ISO: 160
Shutter: 1/30
Date Uploaded: Mar 12, 2020

This shot was taken inside a large, inflatable sculpture called the Katena made by a group called Architects Of The Air. It was exhibited during Bethlehem Musikfest one year and I was fortunate enough to get in early one weekday afternoon when the number of visitors was low. It's fairly easy to take some other worldly photos in there, but as I turned a corner and aimed my fisheye through a doorway I managed to get this young girl perfectly framed for a split second. It wasn't until I got home and looked at it again that the larger, almost anime face appeared with her on the inside. I could have sworn I'd entered it before but found I was MIA on this site at this time so I figured I'd give this one a go here to see how it did.

wonderful image, gives that feeling of looking inward, the girl is so small kind of like a lost child and the confusion created by the scene and expression makes her seem lost, or surprised to be discovered
