"Hellboy Pareidolia 2"
Galesong, Gowa, 2012

Description: Pareidolia is the perceptual tendency to impose a meaningful interpretation on a vague visual stimulus, usually, so that a person sees an object, pattern, or meaning where it doesn't really exist. (Source: Wikipedia).

I took more than 100 photos of the pareidolia face of the red dragonfly "Hellboy" in Galesong village, Gowa regency, South Sulawesi, Indonesia, in 2012. Only about 25 frames will be released as NFT.

I photographed another unique dragonfly in Bandung exactly 1 year after "Hellboy Dragonfly" appeared, but this time with a sweet smile on his yellow face. Less than 5 frames with smiling faces, more without faces. This yellow dragonfly is very shy, hiding behind barbed wire.

The first pareidolia photo I took, was "Petruk's Face" in Bayunggede Kintamani, Bali 2011. Only 2 frames, because "Petruk's Face" is the gesture of an old man when burning his cigarette
