"...looks odd _even_ after rotating" I didn't mean with my first comment, that it looks odd to me at all :-)

Thank you Pedro. Armin, i didnt get what you mean. although, i would guess this rotation looks ok to you now. -Abstract

Markjay, this was shot in omaha zoo (hahaha yeah, another zoo shot). these glass bowls are very popular in kids. i couldnt find a single one without kid(s) playing in them. the story behind this scene is, she was standing and trying to climb (seriously) in the sphere, so obviously she slipped (that was a game for her). then she saw me clicking the image, so to avoid a photograph in any 'odd' pose, she immediately gave me this pose. i am glad you liked the image. -Abstract.

Thank you Armin. the image looks odd even after rotating so I left it as it was to keep the water level horizontal (thats the only reference i could find in the image) my guess is there was a slope on the ground outside. thanks for the suggestion though.

Love the pose of your model, you can see she is truly enjoying this!
A great find, that kind of separates itself from the rest of the challenge images.
So now you have to tell us all, where this bubble of glass fun is located?
If it's a secret and you'd have to kill us after telling us..... keep it secret :-) Markjay

Lucky you, to find such a window - LOVE this one!
As for the (*), I personally would consider to try the look of a slight counter-clockwise rotation. ~ Armin
