    I wouldn't change a thing. Do they still turn the lights out on you? I hope you got a good one of the falls. Nice work here...

    Like the lighting, the composition, and the lost feeling I get looking at it. It's hard to tell where the floor ends and the ceiling begins. Very disorienting....I like it.

    Re: journey to Ruby Falls

    WOW! I'd crop from bottom to get rid of the two bright spots.
    Keep Shooting!

    Re: journey to Ruby Falls

    Thx everyone for your comments.
    Greg, I think I went as far as I can with this one, I have a few of the falls, will wait for your critiques.
    AE, that is a problem with these shots...a keepsake though.
    I'm glad you like it John...its a pretty shot. not a lot of perspective.
    Frog, I like your crop suggestion...although you lose some of the dark voids around it and that off brown to the lower left. hmmm, not sure but thanks.
    Please ask to edit photos and I'll do the same! :thumbsup:
    Thx, Rod

    Re: journey to Ruby Falls

    I agree about cropping the bottom. The bottom part is distracting for me and when it is removed my eye is drawn deeper into the picture where the blue light is. Jeff

    Rod - An interesting scene, a little haywire / confusing though as I am not sure where to look here. I like how you cropped out the lights. This place reminds me of Carlsbad Caverns in NM.
