after the trains, a trip to Ruby Falls and a jaunt underground. This was great except for the lack of a tripod and the American way of rushing about, still it was good.
Just a bit of technical jargon these where all taken handheld with a Panasonic GH2 at between 800 and 1600 ISO as the lighting was not to good. The lens was a Panasonic F 1-7, 20 mm with no zoom and as I said no tripod.
Arches where the Stalagmites and Stalactites have joined together.
Beautiful formations in the Caves.
I think the Elephants leg was a bit thin, but just use your imagination.
Top of Ruby Falls
The lights were only on for 7 minutes and changed colours all the time which made it a job to get the white balance on the camera quite difficult. I must admit it was very nice to the eye and mesmerizing to watch.
Last a "sunset", the back of the cave was lit with a formation in the foreground.
That's it underground, lets see what the weekend bring here in the UK, thanks for looking.
nite, nite, Luv Mike. XX
