    This fake image goes viral every few weeks. It shows the Prohodna cave in Bulgaria, which has two openings resembling eyes. There are many similar images showing fake views of the night sky through the holes, like the unrealistically large #Moon here. I've also seen versions where the Moon has been mirrored into an impossible view.

      After doing some reverse image search I couldn't track down who took the original image, but if you happen to know ping me and I'll credit it accordingly.
