OOOOHHHH - this is a fantastic shot, Bill! That's an incredibly beautiful cave - Jo and I toured that cave back in '72, I think it was. We stopped there on the way to Grand Canyon. I got a few underexposed slides, but nothing this spectacular.

too cool!

I believe the high iso is not a problem with the quality camera you do have Bill. Superb capture. God bless.

but the colors explodes on your camera however. I enjoyed so much shooting Carlsbad and learned a thing or two about low light. beautiful cave

WOW! Just WOW! very beautiful capture

Beautifully done Bill. I took some pictures at the Carlsbad Caverns in new mexico just north of the Texas line some years ago, and I had a hard time getting good pictures. Did you check out Fort Davis not to far south of where you are staying now?

Most excellent photography.

fantastic

What can I say Bill. STUNNING.

Great to see this! Amazing!

amazing place!

Congratulations on this successful photographic in the low light. You could sell this to advertise the cave..really. Thanks for sharing your expert shot with us.

I was about to say "Eeek! The bowels of hell!" but didn't when I considered the immense difficulty in photographing something like this - extremes between the lighted areas and the dark. I'm amazed that you were even able to get anything, most cameras over expose the light areas and the rest turning out black. This shows 2 things - what an excellent photographer you are, and what a good camera you have (in that specific order!). IF you have more photos from these caverns, please do post them. Your series of photos from this trip sure gives many aspects of America that most people (even Americas) don't have the foggiest idea of. Your photos could be put in a book, like "Bill's America". Keep up the good work! :-)

Very cool shot Bill. Nice capture in low light.

You did superbly well Bill this is a fantastic shot of a very interesting cave system, wouldn't mind having a look in there too :)

You have captured this lovely photo extremely well Bill, lots of detail in zoom.

Oh, well done! I'm not sure how I'd handle going underground like this...brave man, and great photographer!

WOW, Bill you & Tara are seeing some amazing places!!

Taking photos in caves is a huge challenge and you did an excellent job here Bill! Very well done - looks very "alien". I love it.

WOOOW; SO stunning. Love it !

Bill, this is brilliant.

stupendous!! Happy Holidays!

Beautiful! You make me almost wish I'd gone down with you. :P Then I think about the heat and the humidity and I'm glad I stayed home. :) Gorgeous picture. I want to sit at your computer and look at what you got on the big screen. This is really phenomenal!

wow it worth going into this cave.

This is the best cave shot I've seen Bill, and your equipment worked very well at its extreme capabilities! I'm not too sure I could go underground in those caves.

I never have been there ! terrific !

Wonderful shot Bill. Well done.

Super sepia color, clarity and detail in this stellar capture of the caverns, with its varied stalactites and stalagmites, Bill, taken under less than ideal lighting conditions.

Now this is cool, and it more likely was! lol A super shot mate, I like it allot, very well taken, I love the light here. Good one! Rob

I am pleased to know, that it was you, who went down there - I would most likely find it too claustrophobic ... but then again curiosity would get the better of me, especially when I see results like this ! irresistible image, Bill BB
