I was doing an engagement shoot at a local Balloon Fest in Lake Havasu City back in January 2011. The couple were dressed in 1950's sytle clothes. I looked inside a Balloon that was being deflated when I noticed the shadows of people on the other side. I told the couple I was shooting to stand very close to the deflating balloon so I could see their shadows and I went back into the balloon and got this shot.
